Bromley

Current ward boundaries
Review Body

This review has been paused while we consider how to carry out effective consultations.

 

Following this pause, the Commission will be launching a public consultation on a set of Further Limited Draft Recommendations.

 

We are in contact with the local authority and community groups, and any updates will be posted here. Further information about this review can be found below. 

 

From July 2018, the Commission is beginning a three-year programme of electoral reviews of London Boroughs, that it has not reviewed in the last 5 years.

 

An electoral review recommends new ward boundaries that mean each councillor will represent approximately the same number of voters. We also aim to ensure that the pattern of wards reflect the interests and identities of local communities as well as promoting effective local government.

 

All London boroughs, except Southwark Council, Tower Hamlets Council, the London Borough of Bexley, Croydon Council, Redbridge Council, Hackney Council, the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, and the City of London, will be reviewed by 2020.

 

For more information, please see this link.

It is Commission policy not to open public consultations in the weeks leading up to elections. Given that Parliament has confirmed a General Election will take place on 12 December 2019, our draft recommendations consultation period has been extended. An updated timetable for our review of Bromley can be found above.

This period of consultation closed on 2 September 2019

From 25 June 2019 to 2 September 2019, we are accepting opinions and comments (submissions) from the public on where you believe ward boundaries should be in Bromley Council.

The Commission is minded to recommend that Bromley Council should have 58 councillors in the future. This is 2 fewer than the current number of councillors.

The Commission now needs information from people and groups across Bromley to help it to produce new ward boundaries to accommodate 58 councillors.
