Thousands of people across Nottinghamshire will be impacted
Thousands of people across Nottinghamshire will be affected by planned changes which will alter who they vote for at the next general election. People living in some areas that are currently part of locations including Mansfield and Broxtowe could be choosing an MP for a different area when the next nationwide vote takes place.
A report has to be made to the House of Commons by next July and the public are now being invited to have their say in the final consultation, which ends on December 5. Below is a summary of the latest plans for each of Nottinghamshire's eleven constituencies.Ashfield will gain the Pleasley Hill and Bull Farm wards of Mansfield alongside the Lindhurst development in Berry Hill.
Broxtowe Borough Council, however, supported the changes. Broxtowe will also extend into the Eastwood area, currently forming part of Ashfield.An expansion of the Gedling constituency is on the cards under the Boundary Commission's plans. Gedling will now include areas of Woodborough, Lambley and Beswtood St Albans, which are currently part of the Sherwood constituency.
A counter-proposal was therefore put forward to include the Pleasley Hill and Bull Farm wards, as well as the new Lindhurst development in Berry Hill, within the Ashfield constituency. The commission has agreed to this counter-proposal, meaning Mansfield will lose the Pleasley Hill and Bull Farm areas, as well as the Lindhurst development in Berry Hill.
"This new 2023 review will rebalance the number of electors each MP represents, resulting in changes to the existing constituency map. I would encourage all our residents to have their say on these proposals and make their voices heard on who represents your ward going forward."The new proposed Newark constituency will extend further south into areas of Rushcliffe and further north into areas of Bassetlaw.
But the commission says the counter-proposals would be "very disruptive to the existing constituencies and local authority boundaries throughout Nottinghamshire." Its plans for Newark will therefore stay the same.The Boundary Commission's original plan was to extend Nottingham East to include the whole of Nottingham's Castle ward, along with other minor changes. These plans received general support and stayed the same.
