WQ84236 (e) Tabled on 13/01/2022

Will the Minister confirm when the Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales's final recommendations for the electoral review changes will be implemented?

Answered by Minister for Finance and Local Government | Answered on 20/01/2022

On 7 December 2021 I issued a statement which confirmed all decisions in respect of proposed changes to the electoral arrangements for each local authority area had been made. The Orders required to implement the new electoral arrangements for each local authority have also been made.

It is now for local government to make the appropriate local arrangements in advance of the local government elections in May.
