Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, whether the Local Government Boundary Commission can initiate a boundary review of a local authority in response to public representations without direct instruction from the Secretary of State or a request from the local authority in question.
The independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England may undertake a principal area boundary review at the request of a local council or the Secretary of State, or on their own initiative.
