RECOMMENDED that Council adopt the proposals as set out in paragraphs 8.1 and 8.4 of the report presented to the meeting.
Reason for Decision: As set out in the report.
Minutes:
The Executive received the report for a minor amendment to the current polling district arrangements for the Exeter Parliamentary Constituency and the part of the East Devon Parliamentary Constituency, which was within the Exeter City Council area. The report was requesting two minor amendments to polling districts within the city. The first amendment was in the St. Thomas Ward, which proposed to combine two polling districts into a single polling district, to make it more accessible for the public. The second amendment was to the Topsham area in relation to a number of houses within the polling district.
Particular reference was made to amendments to polling districts being a Council decision, whereas the situation of the polling stations within the Polling Districts, was the decision of the Returning Officer.
RECOMMENDED that Council adopt the proposals as set out in paragraphs 8.1 and 8.4 of the report presented to the meeting.
