Polling Districts and Polling Places
In accordance with the Representation of the People Act 1983 (Section 18), as amended by the Electoral Administration Act 2006 (Section 16), Hart District Council reviews its Polling Districts and Places at least every four years.
The Returning Officers for all constituencies within Hart are consulted and their comments are in the download area to the right.
Representations and comments are invited from elected members (MEPs, MPs, district and parish councillors), local political parties and electors, as well as persons or organisations who have a particular expertise in relation to access to premises for people with different forms of disability.
Details of the polling districts and polling places, along with the relevant maps, are available for public inspection in the Electoral Services Office.
First Review
The initial review under the legislation commenced in June 2007. Representations were received in writing to the Electoral & Registration Services office up to the 31st July 2007.
Hart District Council resolved on the 27th July 2007 to adopt the schedule printed at the bottom of this page (as amended).
Second Review
Hart District Council undertook a review of electoral arrangements for parishes during 2009. During this process polling districts and places were reviewed and amended. The amendments were made by 'The Hart District Council (Reorganisation of Community Governance) Order 2009' which came into effect on the 1st December 2009 for those amendments connected to polling places and from 1st April 2010 for those amendments affecting parishes.
The amendments made to polling places and districts in 2009 are highlighted in red on the schedule printed at the bottom of this page.
Third Review
The next scheduled review of polling places and stations is due to be undertaken before the 1st December 2013. This review will incorporate the changes made to polling districts as a result of the review of District Ward boundaries being undertaken by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England. This review is expected to be completed in January 2012 and will change ward boundaries with effect from the elections scheduled in May 2014.
The Returning Officer invites comments from any elector at anytime with regard to the accessibility and location of the polling places and stations and will take these into account when deciding on the location of polling stations at the next election.
