Have your say on a new political map for Oxfordshire County Council

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England is asking for your views on proposed new electoral arrangements for Oxfordshire.

New boundaries are being proposed for council divisions in Oxfordshire

We want to know:

• Do the proposed divisions reflect local communities?
• How do you think the proposals can be improved?
• Are the names of the proposed divisions right?

The Local Government Boundary Commission wants to hear what residents and local organisations think about the proposals. A 10 week consultation on the proposals will run until 11 December 2023.

Who is Local Government Boundary Commission ?

The Commission is the independent body that draws these boundaries. It is reviewing Oxfordshire to make sure councillors will represent about the same number of electors, and that division arrangements will help the council work effectively.

What is being proposed?

The Commission has published proposals for changes to Oxfordshire. It is proposing that there should be 69 single-councillor divisions. 66 divisions will change, and 3 will stay the same.

Proposed changes include:

• All divisions now have one councillor each

• Banbury divisions are now coterminous with the parish boundaries

The Commission has a dedicated section on its website where people can see the detail of the proposals and comment on the names of divisions and their boundaries: https://www.lgbce.org.uk/all-reviews/oxfordshire
