I established two Local Electoral Area Boundary Committees on 13 December 2017 to review and make recommendations on local electoral areas. The review is being undertaken having regard to the results of Census 2016 and the commitment to consider reducing the size of territorially large local electoral areas in A Programme for Partnership Government, published in May 2016. The Committees are tasked with reporting to me within six months, that is by June 2018.
