2(12)s. 26(3) Part V 74 1 The treasurer of a registered party may appoint, on such terms as he may determine, one or more deputy treasurers of the party for the purposes of this Part, but not more than 12 persons may hold such appointments at the same time. 2 The appointment of a person as deputy treasurer of a party is effective for those purposes once the treasurer has given the Commission a notification of the appointment which— a contains the name of the person so appointed and the address of his office; and b is accompanied by a declaration of acceptance of office signed by that person. 3 A person is not, however, eligible to be appointed as deputy treasurer of a registered party if, at any time within the last five years, he has been convicted of any offence under this Act or of any other offence committed in connection with a relevant election within the meaning of Part II or a referendum within the meaning of Part VII. 4 A person commits an offence if he accepts the office of deputy treasurer of a registered party when, by virtue of subsection (3), he is not eligible to be so appointed. 5 Where a deputy treasurer of a registered party is convicted of an offence falling within subsection (3), his appointment as deputy treasurer shall terminate on the date of the conviction. 6 If, where the appointment of any deputy treasurer of a registered party has been notified to the Commission under subsection (2)— a the deputy treasurer dies or his appointment terminates for any other reason, or b any change occurs in the address of his office, the treasurer of the party must notify the Commission of that fact within the appropriate period. 7 In subsection (6) “the appropriate period” means— a the period of 14 days beginning with the date of the deputy treasurer’s death or the termination of his appointment, or b the period of 28 days beginning with the date when the change of address occurs, as the case may be. 8 The name of any deputy treasurer of a registered party and the address of his office, as notified to the Commission in accordance with this section, shall be included in the party’s entry in the Great Britain or Northern Ireland register. 9 Where the Commission receive a notification under subsection (6), they shall cause any change required as a consequence of the notification to be made in any such entry as soon as is reasonably practicable. 10 For the purposes of this Part— a the address of the treasurer of a registered party shall be regarded as being the registered address of the party; and b the address of any deputy treasurer of such a party shall be regarded as being the address for the time being registered in relation to him in accordance with subsection (8).
