Members considered the submitted report which set out statistical and benchmarking information and the recommendation of the Overview and Scrutiny Board on a review of boundaries and the number of Councillors required.
It was proposed by Councillor Mills and seconded by Councillor Thomas (D):
(i) that the Assistant Director of Corporate and Business Services be instructed to formally write to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England on behalf of the Council requesting a review of the Council Ward Boundaries to be carried out from April 2017 with a view to any changes being implemented from May 2019 when the next Local Government Elections are scheduled; and
(ii) that any meeting with the Local Government Boundary Commission for England includes the Mayor and Group Leaders together with relevant officers.
On being put to the vote, the motion was declared carried (unanimous).
