Solihull
Give us your views
We want to hear from you.
The views of local people and organisations help shape our proposals and recommendations.
Just tell us what you think and why you think that.
We review the electoral and boundary arrangements of councils to make sure they are fair. Our reviews include at least two rounds of public consultation before we make recommendations for change.
We are carrying out an electoral review of Solihull because it has been a long time since the last review.
