The initial results of the review were disseminated to the relevant Town and Parish Councils who were invited to make comment on the recommendations and were given the opportunity to put forward their case, should they wish to see a different result from that proposed by the review.  Following the initial consultation period a number of the affected Town and Parish Councils, as well as Wiltshire Councillors, commented on the proposals.
