On 26 March 2026, officials from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government sent a letter to the chief executives of Norfolk councils outlining the secondary legislation that will be pursued to implement a proposal for three unitary councils in the county. The correspondence provides details on the upcoming legal changes and the expected timetable for the reorganisation. The letter is part of the government’s broader effort to streamline local governance in Norfolk, following a decision to move from the existing district and borough structure to a unitary system. The Ministry has published the letter on its website on 31 March 2026, and the document is available for download as a 7‑page PDF. Norfolk councils are advised to review the information and prepare for the legislative process.
