Explanatory note

This Order gives effect to recommendations made by Cornwall Council (“the Council”) to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England for the related alteration to a boundary between two electoral divisions within the Council’s area.

The alteration is a consequence of changes to parish boundaries and warding arrangements under the Cornwall (Reorganisation of Community Governance) No. 2 Order 2024, which was made by the Council under powers including section 86 of the Local Government and Public Involvement in Health Act 2007 (c. 28). A hard copy of that Order is available for inspection at reasonable times at the offices of Cornwall Council, County Hall, Treyew Road, Truro, Cornwall TR1 3AY. It is also available online at https://www.cornwall.gov.uk/media/pwhpygvf/cornwall-reorganisation-of-community-governance-no-2-order-2024-110424.pdf.

The change described in article 2 (in relation to electoral divisions) applies in respect of elections to be held on and after the ordinary day of election of councillors in England in 2025.

A full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen.
