Talk:Community council

message: the reason given for the rename in Wales at least was to do with the Church in Wales having been disestablished (quite a weak one: as the Church has had nothing to do with civil parishes for decades by that point). Should find a source to mention this from. Morwen - Talk 14:21, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

message: The article states that community councils in Scotland are not statutory, but the Scottish Executive published recently results of a review of the community council system and, if I remember correctly, it described community councils as both voluntary organisations and as a level statutory representation. However, it true that there is now little correlation between community council area bouncaries and polling district boundaries (because community council area boundaries have not been taken into account in successive reviews of polling district boundaries) and I am at a loss as regards determining any legal basis on which elections of community councils may be held.
I quote from this: Community councils form the most local tier of statutory representation in Scotland.
Polling district reviews are the responsibility of local authorities, but legislation concerning polling districts is a Westminster matter, with the Department for Constitutional Affairs as the rellevant government department.

message: Oldham has Community Councils - , should this be mentioned?
Interesting. I note the borough website is not very informative as regards how and when the community councils were created. And it seems to be rather vague about boundaries. Also the community councils will not have any statutory status. Subject perhaps best covered in the Oldham article. Laurel Bush (talk) 11:24, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

message: The assertion that Scottish community councils are officially stated to be "non-party-political and non-sectarian" seems to need some supporting reference
I  believe some, but not all, community council schemes make this or something similar explicit, and I am not aware of any other "official" ruling on the subject

message: I have a question just to clarify something about community councils in Scotland.  Is the entirety of each council area divided into communities?  I read pretty clearly that there are communities who choose not to have community councils, but is every piece of territory in mainland Scotland "parished" as it were, or is all territory a part of a community? --Criticalthinker (talk) 09:52, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
