The initial consultation period is until 11 October 2024.

Review details

North Norfolk District Council is required to complete a review of all polling districts and polling places within its administrative boundary at least once every five years. The last review took place in 2018. This does not prevent changes from being made before the next periodical review.

Definitions

Polling district

The polling district is the geographical area created by dividing an electoral area. All wards within the North Norfolk district are divided into polling districts, which form the basis upon which the register of electors is produced. Parish boundaries define most polling districts, but there are exceptions. Unless there are special circumstances, each parish must be in a separate polling district.

Polling place

This is the designated area for a polling district where a polling station is located.

Polling station

A polling station is the actual area where the process of voting takes, for example, a room in a community centre or a school.

For the review

Aim of the review

The purpose of the review is to make sure:

  • electors have reasonable facilities for voting, which are practicable in the circumstances
  • as far as is reasonable and practicable, the polling places are accessible to all electors and must consider the accessibility needs of those who are disabled

The review will not consider parish, ward boundaries, divisions or parliamentary constituencies.

Providing feedback

We are looking for thoughts and views about the current arrangements as shown in the current schedule of polling districts

This document shows each polling district alphabetically and includes information such as:

  • currently designated polling place
  • electorate
  • parliamentary constituency
  • district council ward
  • county council division (current division and new division from December 2024)

It also shows the Acting Returning Officer's proposals and comments. These should be considered when making any response to the review. Any comments on what, if any, changes should be made are welcome.
