In accordance with Section 18 of the Representation of the People Act 1983 (as amended by Section 17 of the Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013), Aberdeenshire Council is conducting a review of polling districts, polling places and polling stations within the UK parliamentary constituencies of Banff and Buchan, Gordon and West Aberdeenshire & Kincardine. The purpose of the review is to ensure reasonable facilities for voting and that polling places are accessible to all electors, including voters with a disability, so far as is practicable. Those who wish to make representations regarding existing polling arrangements should, where possible, offer alternative venues which may be used as polling places.

Details of current polling places and polling districts can be found online at www.aberdeenshire.gov.uk/elections, together with relevant maps and other statistical information. Representations should be made in writing (by post or by email) to the address below by Tuesday 17th December 2013.
