Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places (Parliamentary Elections) Regulations 2006
Section 17 of the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 introduced a duty on local authorities to ‘carry out and complete’ reviews of polling districts and polling places before 31 January 2025.
To comply with this duty the review in the Caerphilly County Borough will be conducted between 9 February and 28 March.
We would like to invite initial comments from electors regarding the convenience of voting at polling stations currently used for elections and would welcome suggestions for alternative sites.
The review will seek to establish how suitably placed the polling stations are within each electoral area, making specific reference to both disability and accessibility issues. We would welcome representations or comments on the authority’s proposals from any person or body with expertise in access for persons with any type of disability.
As part of the review the Returning Officers for the three constituencies located within the County borough will make comments on the proposed polling stations.
Further information, including any comments by the Returning Officers, about the review will be published on www.caerphilly.gov.uk. An information pack giving information about each station is also available.
Submissions can be made by in writing to - Polling Review, Caerphilly County Borough Council, Bargoed House, 1 St Gwladys Way, Bargoed, CF81 8AB or by email to – electoralservices@caerphilly.gov.uk
All responses to Stage 1 of the review must be submitted by 29 February.
