We have been informed of the government’s decision on Local Government Reorganisation (LGR) in Lancashire.

Subject to Parliamentary approval [number] new unitary councils will be created, replacing all 15 existing councils, including ours.

We want to reassure you that for now, it is very much business as usual as we continue to provide excellent services to our residents.

We also want to thank you for your continued professionalism and dedication. The work you do every day makes a real difference, and that will remain the foundation of what comes next.

To support shape our communication around your questions please submit your questions for review and consideration.


Your initial questions will be answered during the two engagement sessions, which will be held on:

  • Tuesday 28 July 2026, 2pm in the Chamber at Derby Street

  • Thursday 30 July 2026, 2:30pm over teams

This portal will stay open even after the two engagement sessions for any further questions you may have. We will try to answer as many questions as we can through Let’s Connect, Team West Lancs or via the FAQ intranet page.
