Dear Mr McMillan

Thank you for your email requesting information on the sitting of polling
stations in Hackney. I attach a copy of our most recent map/election
notice detailing the location of polling stations for the European
Parliamentary elections held on 4 June. Please note that following each
major election a review is conducted and where necessary changes are made,
so this may not represent all the polling stations for the next elections
although the actual polling district boundaries will remain unchanged.

I further attach a copy of our most current street index detailing the
streets covering each of our 78 polling districts which I trust is
helpful.

I hope that this all makes sense but please come back directly to me if
you require further assistance or would like any of the attached in hard
paper copy.

Kind regards
