AN INDEPENDENT body wants Oxford people to give it their views on how they want city wards to look in the future.

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England wants people’s views about how council wards are drawn up following an electoral review.

It will eventually produce new wards for Oxford’s 48 city councillors.

Professor Colin Mellors, the commission’s chairman, said: “If you have a view about which communities or neighbourhoods should be part of the same council ward, then we want to hear from you.”

The consultation runs until March 19. See the consultation on lgbce.org.uk
