Baroness Taylor of Stevenage (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 11 February 2025

Debate

Local Government: Electoral Quotas

Contribution

The boundary commission is focused on making sure that the structure of the electoral wards and divisions meets the needs of the council concerned; that is, in respect of the types of decisions being taken, the need for strategic leadership in those areas to enable the appropriate scrutiny of decisions and making sure that councillors can meet their community responsibilities. It has been doing this for decades, and I am sure it will continue to do so.
