For governance purposes it is divided between the town of Heron Bay, the Moose Meadows 4 Indian reserve, and the Restigouche rural district; the town and rural district are both members of the Restigouche Regional Service Commission.
Prior to the 2023 governance reform, the parish was divided between the village of Charlo, the Indian reserve, and the local service districts of Charleur and Lorne. In the 2023 reform, Charlo merged with the town of Dalhousie to form Heron Bay, which annexed Heron Island and the communities of Benjamin River, Blackland, and New Mills from Chaleur; Lorne and the remainder of Chaleur became part of the rural district.
