Boundary Review

The Boundary Commission for England (BCE) is required by Parliament to undertake an independent and impartial review of all constituencies in England to rebalance the number of electors in each constituency, and this review includes the constituency of Lincoln.

The BCE published its initial proposals for new constituency boundaries on 8 June 2021, which was followed by two periods of consultation. The BCE has now published and submitted its final report of the parliamentary constituencies’ boundary review to the Speaker of the House of Commons. On 28 June 2023, the Speaker laid the boundary report before Parliament. To view the Boundary Commission for England’s final report, please visit: bcereviews.org.uk .

The Government will draft an Order containing the recommendations of the Boundary Commission. Once that draft Order is approved by the Privy Council, the new constituencies will be implemented for the next General Election after which the Order is approved. The Boundary Order must be made by the end of October 2023.
