Background

 

Within each local authority area, legislation requires councils to carry out reviews of the Polling Districts and Polling Places in that area.

The North Yorkshire Council area is divided into polling districts, with one or more polling districts making up a division, and with a polling place being an area or building within a polling district in which a polling station is situated.

The last full statutory review was held in 2023 and was the first for North Yorkshire Council area.  The Electoral Registration & Administration Act 2013 governs the timings of compulsory reviews. The next compulsory review is due to commence in the 16 month period beginning on 1 October 2028. A council can conduct a review at any time, but it will still have to conduct a full review during the compulsory timeframe.

The Council conducted an interim polling district and polling place review on 10 October taking into consideration the Community Governance Review for unparished areas of Harrogate and Scarborough – including boundary anomalies relating to the parishes of Eastfield, Newby and Scalby and Osgodby.   It is also reviewing the designated polling stations where the existing venue is no longer available or suitable to act as a polling station. This review effects only 25 divisions of North Yorkshire Council’s 89, and 62 polling districts and 49 polling stations.  Consultation on these initial proposals closed on 31 October 2024.

The initial proposals were distributed to local community groups, action groups, disability groups, charities, MPs, Parish Councils and County Councillors. Representations were received and considered, and the final recommendations are presented within this document.

Any changes to polling districts that are approved will be included in the revised electoral register which will be published on 1 December 2024.
