As polling day approaches Candidates and Agents are respectfully reminded of their obligations under the Electoral Commission Code of Conduct. As part of this communication strategy, the Local Returning Officer encourages all Candidates and Agents to sign up and to abide by this code of conduct. This is especially important when briefing campaign staff who may not ordinarily have read the code themselves.
