Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places 2019 Acting Returning Officer’s response

01 July 2019 Dear Sir/Madam

Please find below my comments on the review. Since the last polling districts and polling places review in 2015, all venues have been kept under regular appraisal and reflect the on-going changes that have occurred within the intervening years. Therefore the approach I have taken is to ensure consistency and certainty for members of the public by only making changes to polling districts and polling stations if it is necessary. Additionally changes have been proposed which directly benefit the voter experience in the polling station by reducing the maximum number of potential voters in the station and thus reducing the risk of queues.

Current and future choices of polling station have been primarily based on the availability of potential venues coupled to the following criteria:-  A venue reachable for all voters regardless as to the means of travelling there.  A venue within 1 mile safe walking distance.  No more than 1,500 polling station electors (based on projected 2023 electorate numbers) at a venue, unless the venue is capable of being a dual station – 2 polling stations within one building).  Polling station must stay within the ward.  A voter must not walk past another in-use polling station to get to their own one.  Minimise the use of Portacabins.

In summary I have recommended the following changes to polling district boundaries which affect 17 wards:-  3 polling districts to be deleted  8 new ones created  46 boundary changes.

Additionally I have recommended changes to polling stations which affect 17 wards and include:-  21 polling station changes  11 requests for suggestions for alternatives for specific polling districts.

Yours faithfully

Tim O’Gara

Acting Returning Officer Bristol City Council Review of Polling Districts and Polling Places 2019 Acting Returning Officer’s response

Why boundary changes have been proposed

Between the last review in 2015 and projected to the mid-point that proposed changes will be in force for (2021), the population of Bristol City is expected to increase by nearly 6%. By considering trend analysis of population increases, and known developments within the city, these proposals are being made to ensure that the arrangements are fit for purpose both now and into the future.

Why some wards have a proposed increase in the number of polling districts

In addition to the increased electorate expected to be voting in each ward, as Acting Returning Officer I am required to ensure that polling stations are fit for purpose. Part of this requirement is to ensure that the voter experience is free from interruption and delivered in an efficient way with queues kept to a minimum. Where polling districts have substantially more than 1,500 electors I have proposed either splitting the polling district into two or moving voters to another polling district. It should be noted that splitting a polling district into 2 does not normally increase staffing levels as the existing number of staff are employed across the 2 stations handling the same number of voters, but employed in a more efficient manner. Additionally where polling districts have been split, they are mostly within the same venue, but using distinct separate areas or rooms. Hence costs are kept approximately the same.

Definitions

What is a Polling District? A polling district is the area created by the sub-division of a parliamentary constituency into smaller parts. A polling district will not breach ward boundaries.

On polling day all electors in a polling district will attend the same polling place to vote (unless they have opted to vote by post). One copy of the electoral register will be produced for each polling district, listing the electors in that polling district.

What is a Polling Place? A ‘polling place’ is the geographical area, in which a polling station is located. It must be designated so that polling stations are within easy reach of all electors from across the polling district.

What is a Polling Station? A polling station is the actual area where the process of voting takes place, e.g. a room in a community centre or school.
