We are now inviting town and parish councils, local residents and other interested persons, groups or organisations, to provide a submission for any particular changes (including no change) they want to make to the current governance arrangements.

Please use the submission form to inform us of any desired changes. Please ensure this reaches us by 17 July 2019.

The Council will consider all submissions received. In November 2019 it will publish its draft recommendations and undertake a 12 week public consultation to get feedback.

The feedback will inform the final recommendations. This is intended to be submitted by the Electoral Review Panel to Full Council for decision making in June 2020.

This timeline is intended to ensure the agreed changes can be implemented in good time so they can take effect at the 2021 local council elections.

Indicative Timetable for the Cornwall Community Governance Review 2019-2020

In December 2018 we wrote to all town and parish councils to seek their initial views on whether a review was needed in their parish. We also attended the Cornwall Association of Local Councils conference on 16 February 2019 to talk about the process.

We have published the Terms of Reference and the timetable for the review. We have also published a range of supporting information. This has details about the current arrangements and information to help inform the review.

A quarter of a century ago, Class 50s Nos. 50050 and 50007 left London Waterloo for Penzance, returning east to Paddington for their final British Rail journey. On this Saturday excursion, we are repeating the itinerary, this time from Paddington and returning to Waterloo with two Class 50s at the business end giving us over 600 miles of English Electric power, courtesy of the Class 50 Alliance.

From Reading we head through Newbury, over Savernake Summit, down to Westbury and across ‘the Desert’ to Taunton. We climb over Whiteball, down the Culm Valley, along the sea-wall, then over Dainton and Rattery to Plymouth. Still travelling west, we travel over the Royal Albert Bridge into Cornwall to line’s end at Penzance, for a break of two hours (1330 to 1530).

On the return we reverse at Exeter for a run to Salisbury over ‘the Mule’. After climbing again either side of Andover it is then fifty miles of fast running into Waterloo.
