A Norfolk council is set to undergo a reshuffle as its towns and villages grow in size. 

The Local Government Boundary Commission for England will undertake an electoral review of Broadland Council after it identified "electoral inequalities" across the district. 

These inequalities are due to a population spike in different wards, meaning the commission must consider whether a corresponding increase in the number of councillors is necessary to ensure everyone is suitably represented. 

The review could also see changes to the names and boundaries of wards across the district and the number of members elected in each area.

Broadland Council members have been invited to preliminary meetings next month and will be required to provide a submission on their ideas for recommended size by May. 

Breckland Council also recently called for a boost to member numbers as part of an electoral review after it was found that more than a third of wards in the district were underrepresented. 

It is hoped these changes will enable the authority to better represent its people and ensure "any debate is informed by a range of views and opinions."
