Cabinet noted the update on the Local Government Reorganisation.
Local Government Reorganisation in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire has progressed through a defined sequence of statutory and policy milestones, beginning with the Government’s invitation to develop proposals before submission in November 2025. The process was designed to develop and implement proposals to move from the current two-tier local government system to unitary authorities in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
Shadow elections were expected to take place in May 2027 to establish the first cohort of elected Members for the new unitary authorities created through Local Government Reorganisation in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
