# The Wiltshire (Electoral Changes) Order 2024, Note: Explanatory note


(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order gives effect to two sets of recommendations made by Wiltshire Council (“the Council”) to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England for related alterations to the boundaries of a number of county electoral divisions within the Council’s area.
The alterations are a consequence of changes to parish boundaries and parish warding arrangements under the Wiltshire Council (Reorganisation of Community Governance) Order 2023 and the Wiltshire Council (Reorganisation of Community Governance) Order 2023 No. 2, which were 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 each of those Orders is available for inspection at reasonable times at the offices of Wiltshire Council, Bythesea Road, Trowbridge, Wiltshire BA14 8JN.
The changes described in articles 3 and 4 apply 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.
