Seats and candidates
Year Number of candidates 2023 9 2019 9 2015 9 2011 12 As can be seen from the table above there has only been one contested election in 2011 since the creation of Central Bedfordshire. The elections in 2015, 2019 and 2023 had insufficient candidates and consequently the candidates were elected without contest. The vacant seats were authorised to be filled by co-option.
