These Regulations revoke and replace the European Parliamentary Elections (Returning Officers' Expenses) Regulations 1984. They prescribe, in relation to England, Wales and Scotland, a revised scale increasing the maximum fees in respect of services rendered and the maximum charges in respect of expenses incurred by a returning officer for the purposes of or in connection with the European Parliamentary elections. For certain expenses the increase from 1984 is 31 per cent plus an overall addition of £25,000 above the sums paid to the returning officer in respect of the corresponding expenses incurred in connection with the 1984 European Parliamentary elections. Other increases are between 24 per cent and 60 per cent. These Regulations also provide for certain additional fees and charges where the European Parliamentary elections take place on the same day as parliamentary or local government elections.
