The independent Local Government Boundary Commission for England has published its final recommendations for new electoral arrangements for Blackburn with Darwen Council.

Speaking after the report was published, Councillor Mohammed Khan, Leader of the Council, said:

We have received the Boundary Commission’s report this morning. The report has followed a very thorough review in which the Council worked very closely with the Commission to bring forward coherent proposals which can now be implemented by next May in time for the next local election.

I want to thank everyone for their contributions and want to thank everyone involved for their hard work and effort.

I am delighted that the Boundary Commission accepted almost all our recommendations in full.”
