South Ribble Borough Council
ELECTORAL REVIEW OF SOUTH RIBBLE BOROUGH COUNCIL 1 Electoral Review of South Ribble Borough Council Introduction Each year, the Local Government Boundary Commission for England audits the levels of electoral imbalances arising in each English local authority area in order to establish whether there is a need for an electoral review. Imbalances can arise from changing demographics and new developments, and movement of electors between local authority areas, as well as within individual areas. There are two elements that the Commission takes into account when assessing the need for an electoral review. Both relate to the level of electoral representation within a local authority area. Electoral inequality exists when voters are either over-represented or under-represented by their local councillor(s) in relation to average levels of representation for the authority as a whole. Under the criteria adopted by the Commission, if either of the following conditions is found to exist, then consideration is given to the need for a review: • Any local authority with a division or ward that has an electoral variance in excess of 30%. This means a division or ward having at least 30% more (or less) electors in it than the average for the authority as a whole; and/or • Any local authority where more than 30% of the divisions or wards have an electoral variance in excess of 10% from the average for that authority. On the basis of the latest data available, our authority appears to meet the selection criteria, with 9 of our 27 wards (33%) having an electoral variance in excess of 10%. -

Five Year Housing Supply Statement for Chorley
Five Year Housing Supply Statement for Chorley May 2020 (Updated March 2021) Introduction 1. The National Planning Policy Framework (the Framework) sets out that local planning authorities should identify and update annually a supply of specific deliverable sites sufficient to provide a minimum of five years’ worth of housing against their housing requirement. 2. This statement covers the five year period 1st April 2020 – 31st March 2025. It sets out the housing requirement for the five year period and assesses the land supply available to deliver the requirement. 3. Overall the statement concludes that there is sufficient land available across the Borough with a 11.2 year deliverable housing supply over the period 2020-2025. Five Year Housing Requirement 4. Central Lancashire Core Strategy Policy 4 sets out a housing requirement of 417 dwellings per annum in Chorley over the period 2010-2026 which is the starting point for calculating the five year supply. This equates to a total of 6,672 dwellings over the plan period. At April 2010 Chorley had prior under- provision of 162 dwellings, which Policy 4 requires the Council to make up over the remainder of the plan period. Therefore, at April 2010 the housing requirement for the Borough was 6,834 dwellings. 5. Table 1 sets out housing completions over the period 1st April 2010 to 31st March 2020. It identifies that 6,010 dwellings have been completed in the period and there is a surplus of 1,678 dwellings above the requirement for that period (taking into account the prior under-provision of 162 dwellings). -
