Cllr Jeremy Newmark, Leader of Hertsmere Borough Council responds to today's Government announcement on Local Government Reorganisation :

Leader responds to Government update on LGR

29/10/2026

Local Government Reorganisation - Statement on behalf of Angie Ridgwell, Senior Responsible Officer, Hertfordshire Local Government Reorganisation Programme :
The Government has announced today (29 October 2026) that it has withdrawn the decision to create four new unitary councils in Hertfordshire as part of Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) alongside decisions for a number of other areas.
The Government will continue its review of these areas and expects to announce some new minded to decisions before the end of the year and the remainder early in the new year. We do not yet know when Hertfordshire’s decision will be made. These minded to decisions will be subject to a short period of review, allowing representations from stakeholders before a final decision is made.
The Government has also confirmed that it will release half of the allocated transition funding, approximately £2 million, to Hertfordshire in November, with the remaining funding provided once a final decision has been reached.
Shadow Authority elections will take place in May 2028, with the new authorities going live on 1 April 2029, one year later than originally planned.
While today's announcement means there is no confirmed reorganisation model for Hertfordshire yet, work across the county will continue. We will now carefully consider the implications of this announcement on Hertfordshire’s LGR programme and the work to establish a Mayoral Strategic Authority for Hertfordshire as soon as possible following the announcement in the Budget. Hertfordshire’s councils remain committed to working collaboratively, engaging constructively with Government and ensuring that we are prepared for the next stage of the process once further clarity is provided.
