Section 58 – Review procedure
133.This section sets out the procedure which the Local Government Boundary Commission for England must follow when conducting electoral reviews under section 53. It provides, in particular, for a process of preparing and publishing draft recommendations, and for a period of time for interested persons to make representations about those draft recommendations (subsection (2)). At the end of its review, the Local Government Boundary Commission for England must publish a report stating its recommendations (subsection 4(a)). It re-enacts section 15 of the Local Government Act 1992 with some amendments to remove the role of the Electoral Commission.
