EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Representation of the People (Combination of Polls) (England and Wales) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/294) (the “2004 Regulations”).
Regulations 3 to 6 amend Schedule 2 to the 2004 Regulations, which sets out modifications to the Parliamentary Elections Rules that have effect when a poll at a parliamentary election is combined with a poll at another election or referendum. Regulation 3 replaces the notice that must be displayed in polling compartments. Regulations 4 to 6 replace the guidance for voters and the form of the declaration to be made by the companion of a voter with disabilities.
Regulation 2 makes various amendments consequential on the enactment of the Localism Act 2011 (c.20), the making of the Local Authorities (Mayoral Elections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 (S.I. 2007/1024) and the making of the Local Authorities (Conduct of Referendums) (England) Regulations 2012 (S.I. 2012/323).
Regulation 7 revokes redundant provisions in the Representation of the People (Combination of Polls) (England and Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2006 (S.I. 2006/3278).
For the application of these Regulations to elections of Police and Crime Commissioners, see the Police and Crime Commissioner Elections (Amendment) Order 2014 (S.I. 2014/921).
