The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland is an independent body in Scotland responsible for reviewing electoral arrangements for local elections. It reports to the Scottish Executive.
It completed its Third Statutory Review of electoral arrangements in October, 1998 as part of the transition to unitary local government in Scotland. No plans have yet been announced for the Fourth Review, which is unlikely to start before about 2006.
In February, 2001 the Commission proposed four small changes to the boundaries of authorities to avoid bisecting developed areas.
