(This note is not part of the Order)
The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland conducted a review of a local government boundary, which was undertaken in compliance with a Ministerial Direction made under section 15(3) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 (“the 1973 Act”), and the Scottish Ministers received its report on 20 April 2018. The report made proposals for the transfer of an area between Glasgow City Council and North Lanarkshire Council, and also made proposals for changes in electoral arrangements consequential to that change in local government areas. This Order gives effect to the proposals in that report.
This Order transfers the area of land described in the schedule from Glasgow City Council to North Lanarkshire Council on 1 April 2019 (article 4) and changes electoral arrangements (article 5).
The boundary map delineating the boundaries amended by this Order is stored on DVD-ROM and certified copies are issued by the Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland in accordance with regulation 3 of the Local Government Area Changes (Scotland) Regulations 1977. The copies are sealed and signed by the Commission in accordance with paragraph 10 of schedule 4 of the 1973 Act. Copies of the DVD-ROM are available for inspection by the public from the local authorities concerned.
