<p>My officials meet regularly with officers of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England where a range of matters are discussed including the Government’s intentions for implementing proposals for new unitary councils. All such discussions are in the context of the Government’s clear recognition of the independence of the Commission and an appreciation of the Commission’s published guidance on electoral matters and its aim that electoral arrangements for councils should seek to be fair and deliver equality of representation for electors.</p>
