  • Bexley Labour Group Submission 2
    Bexley Labour Group submission 2 (B) Overview of proposed arrangements This submission has sought to deliver electoral equality throughout the pattern, forming wards around a principle of -/+5% from the variance. Nineteen of the twenty-three wards achieve this principle; fourteen proposed wards are within 4%, nine are within 3%, five are within 2% and three are within 1% of the average electoral quotient. Four wards are above the self-imposed - /+5% quotient and where that is the case it has been justified in the description of the proposed wards. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England has indicated that it is minded to recommend that the council size be forty-five and this proposal reflects that. Bexley is a residential suburban borough and many of the towns and neighbourhoods have been built around railway stations and they remain and provide a hub with shops and amenities. Where appropriate and where railway lines can be easily traversed the proposed arrangements reflect that. The submission considers the A2 which runs east-west across the centre of the borough to be an obstacle and no proposed wards cross it. The ward description sets out the defined borders of the proposed wards and deals with the three principles of i) electoral equality, ii) community identity and iii) effective and convenient local government. (C) Description of wards 1. Thamesmead East The proposed ward is defined to the north by the River Thames, to the east by Norman Road (beyond the Crossness engines and nature reserve), to the south by the North Kent railway line and to the west by the border with the Royal Borough of Greenwich.

What are the key problems with National Rail services in London that need to be addressed? They are less frequent than tubes and London Overground services, they end too early, there are insufficent staff members on stations. 2. What changes to the delivery, funding or governance of rail services in London should be considered? The concession arrangement granted to LOROL has transformed the services in question, proving that increasing the frequency and attractiveness of the service brings people off the roads and onto rail, or out of their homes to become economically active. 3.

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England (“the Commission”) agreed that it would undertake a review of the London Borough of Bexley’s electoral arrangements.

The Commission has indicated that it is minded to recommend that 45 borough councillors should be elected to the London Borough of Bexley in future and on 8 th September opened its consultation inviting proposals for a new pattern of electoral wards to accommodate those councillors.
