Final recommendations on future Leeds City Council electoral arrangements

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) has today published its final recommendations on the future electoral arrangements for Leeds City Council.

A press release from the LGBCE is available here and information about the process, full report and interactive mapping of the final recommendations can be viewed on the LGBCE website here.

The LGBCE has now completed its review of Leeds City Council. The changes proposed must now be implemented by order subject to Parliamentary scrutiny. A draft Order – the legal document which brings into force the recommendations – will be laid in Parliament. The draft Order will provide for new electoral arrangements for Leeds City Council to be implemented at the local elections in 2018.
