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 is initial proposals for new constituency boundaries on 8 June 2021, which was followed by an eight-week consultation period.  The BCE is now holding its final phase of consultation on its revised proposals between 8 November and 5 December 2022. To have your say as part of the final phase of consultation, please refer to the BCE’s website: bcereviews.org.uk where you can also view and take into account the responses sent as part of the earlier stages of consultation.

Following this final phase of consultation, the BCE will be taking account of all of the submissions received.  The BCE will then submit a formal final report to the Speaker of the House of Commons before 1 July 2023, recommending proposed changes to constituencies, for approval by the Government, which would be implemented for the next General Election after the date on which the proposals are approved.
