When the communes concerned by a request to create a new commune are not located in the same département or region, the decision to create the commune may only be taken after the territorial boundaries of the départements or regions concerned have been modified by decree in the Conseil d’Etat, in the absence of any reasoned deliberations to the contrary by the département councils and regional councils concerned. The Minister responsible for local and regional authorities notifies each departmental council concerned and, where applicable, each regional council concerned of the proposed creation of the new commune, the deliberations of the municipal councils concerned and, where applicable, the results of the consultations organised pursuant to article L. 2113-3.
