Minutes:

The Council had reviewed existing arrangements for Parliamentary polling districts and polling places.  The review had in particular looked at the arrangements for the St John’s West polling district, with view to identifying an alternative polling place to The Oaktree Infant School.  The review had concluded that no sustainable alternative currently existed.  However, it was felt that there was scope for the development of a permanent community facility in the area which could be used for elections and wider community activities at other times of year.  Proposals would be developed over the coming year.
