Initial consultation
26 March 2024: Please note, the spreadsheet originally available has been removed and replaced by this. The revised spreadsheet provides the correct figures in cells L5, L6, M5, M6 and columns N and P. They also include an additional 264 electors in cell I69, reflecting the growth in Cleadon Lane Industrial Estate that was originally omitted.
