Review of polling districts, polling places and polling stations 2023
In accordance with the requirements of the Representation of the People Act 1983 and the Electoral Administration Act 2013, we have carried out a statutory review of polling districts, polling places and polling stations that are used at parliamentary elections.
The purpose of the review is to ensure voters have reasonable and practical facilities for voting and that, as far as is reasonable and practicable, polling places are accessible to all electors, and meet the needs of disabled persons.
