Slapton, Northamptonshire - Governance

Governance

Slapton is represented on Woodend Parish Council and forms part of the Blakesley & Cote ward of South Northants District Council. The village is in the area of Northamptonshire County Council.

The current Parliamentary Constituency is Daventry. However, for the 2010 General Election there are boundary changes. The Boundary Commission originally retained the parish in the revised Daventry constituency, but after consultation with local residents the village was moved into the new South Northamptonshire constituency. Both Daventry and South Northamptonshire constituencies are considered 'safe' Conservative seats.
