Local Government Reorganisation
Tracking the East Sussex Local Government Reorganisation programme, including the Government's pause of the plan and its knock-on effect on Wealden's May 2027 elections.
This page tracks Local Government Reorganisation in East Sussex — from the Government’s July 2026 decision to create a single East Sussex unitary authority, through to its abrupt pause on 7 September 2026 and the confirmation that the May 2027 local elections will now go ahead on existing council boundaries, including for Wealden District Council — as published in the posts below.
