A Constitutional Referendum is a special poll initiated by a Council that can only contain questions relating to the creation or abolition of wards, the way the Mayor is elected, or changing the number of councillors. The outcome of a Constitutional Referendum is binding on the Council.
The question at a Council Constitutional Referendum is carried if it is supported by a majority of the formal votes cast.
