He has moved on to greener pastures I am taking on the Review Officer role for the Rotherham review. I’ll be doing the day‐to‐day stuff …..and now….. ArcMap shapefiles (polygons) would be perfect Thanks David From: Moran, James [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 04 July 2016 14:10 To: Bowden, Tim <[email protected]> Cc: Wardle, Claire <[email protected]>; Owen, David <[email protected]> Subject: RE: Electoral review of Rotherham Hi Tim, I have asked our GIS team for mapping data, but they have asked us to specify what format is required. Could you let me know this please? Many thanks James Moran AEA (Cert).

As discussed, I promised I would follow‐up with an email of information required and meetings to arrange. Meetings All member briefing ‐ 1 hour is normally allocated for the briefing. This is normally made up of a 10 minute presentation with the rest of the time for Q&A. This gives the Commission the chance to explain the review to all members. Some authorities like holding these before a council meeting and some prefer keeping it completely separate. Group Leaders briefing ‐ 45 minutes is normally allocated for this session. This gives the chance for the Lead Commissioner to meet and have a more informal conversation on the review with the Group Leaders. Ideally, it would be good to hold this on the same day as the member briefing ‐ beforehand is better. Officer briefing ‐ can last anywhere from 1 to 2 hours. During this session I will run through the review is detail and answer any questions. I can do this on the same day as the member briefing or sooner if you wished. We can have the meetings after the election, I would just suggest we get a date and time agreed. Information This information is requested for any electoral review: Current and forecast electorate figures for 2022 ‐ broken down by polling district and collated using the following spreadsheet ‐ http://www.lgbce.org.uk/__data/assets/excel_doc/0012/10407/proforma‐for‐electoral‐ arrangements.xls Details of electorate forecasting methodology ‐ we have produced some guidance on compiling electorate forecasts which can be found here ‐ http://www.lgbce.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0017/10394/electorate‐forecasts‐ guidance‐2012.pdf. As I mentioned yesterday on the phone we might be able to assist in pulling together a first cut of electorate forecasts, to do this we will need a copy of the electoral register. Details of parishes and parish warding arrangements ‐ i.e. number of parish councillors elected to each parish council, the number from each parish ward etc. Electronic copy of most recent electoral register in Microsoft Excel format. A Geo‐coded copy of the electoral register ‐ this is a mapped copy of the register. I suggest establishing what GIS expertise you have at the Council GIS mapping data for polling districts across the district. Contact details for residents associations and community groups for consultation purposes, in Microsoft Excel format ‐ this is so we can write to these groups when we launch each consultation Local press and media contacts We will require some other information but this is a good start. We have some detailed guidance on reviews which can be found here ‐ http://www.lgbce.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/10410/technical‐guidance‐2014.pdf. In terms of when we will want this information it will not be until August/September 2016, but it’s a good idea to get a head start. As I mentioned yesterday, it's also worth doing so preparatory work on council size as the Commission will be asking the Council for a submission on what it thinks is an appropriate number of councillors for Rotherham. Page 41 of the 2 technical guidance lays out in some detail what you should think about on council size. We will also be asking for submissions on council size by August/September 2016. Hope this is helpful. As I said yesterday we are regularly undertaking reviews and can provide advice throughout. I will be managing the review of Rotherham and the lead officer will be David Owen ‐ I have copied David into this email. Kind regards Tim Tim Bowden Review Manager Local Government Boundary Commission for England 14th Floor Millbank Tower Millbank London, SW1P 4QP Tel: 0330 500 1270 www.lgbce.org.uk It would help us if you would take a few minutes to answer a few questions about your experience of how we dealt with you.

We seem to be homing in on Friday 15 July, but that isn’t a dead certainty yet. We also like to do a session with officers on the nuts and bolts of a review ‐ essentially the people that are actually going to be doing the work. This would be Richard and I. This doesn’t have to be on the same day, it can be sooner than 15th or later, although Lesley tells me that you are going on leave on 19th. Before you go would I think be good, so that those who might need to do things can be getting on with them. We’ll cover the review process, timetable and the information we will need from you including electorate forecasts. The list of information we need is included in our guidance at https://www.lgbce.org.uk/__data/assets/pdf_file/0006/10410/technical‐guidance‐2014.pdf page 29. With us deciding on council size in October, we’ll need to get our information needs met before then. Richard and I have pretty good capacity at the moment to come when it suits you, so perhaps you could give some thought to when it would be good for us to have a session, and which of your colleagues you would like to involve.
