Samenvoeging van de gemeenten Bedum, De Marne, Eemsmond en Winsum

This Dutch legislative procedure concerns the proposed merger of four municipalities in the province of Groningen: Bedum, De Marne, Eemsmond and Winsum. Under Dutch law, municipal mergers are formally enacted through legislation passed by the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives), which sets out the new municipal boundaries and arrangements. The procedure was submitted to the national parliament as a bill. The residents of the four municipalities would be affected, as their local government would be combined into a single new municipality, with changes to local administration, services and elected councils. Based on metadata only, the precise details of the new arrangements are not available here.
