    Any update on this ?

    Hi, My understanding is that the GIS department of some of the local authorities have these boundaries. I feel these boundary files would be very valuable in analyzing the national and local elections

    Thanks for that - is it at least possible to ask all those local authorities to make those datasets available?

  • We have checked with the DHPLG who do not have this dataset and are not aware if a national database exists. It would seem that data on the extent of polling districts are held by local authorities, but in a text format, describing the boundaries of the polling district, rather than in geographical format. Sorry that we could not be of assistance. Open Data Team, 12/10/2018
