Members iPad / Technology Issues

We are at the stage of preparing quantities of printing for the nomination packs.  We should have the packs ready to send at the start of March.   As soon as they are ready to go we will send them out!  If you would like a nomination pack (either for yourself as an individual or on behalf of a political party), please let the Elections Office know so that we can add your details to our distribution list – an early response helps with finalising our numbers for printing.  You can either email your nomination pack requirements to elections@eppingforestdc.gov.uk or call the office on 01992 564411.

----Earlier this week the Government announced a change to the nomination paper for County and District election so that only a Proposer and Seconder have to sign the nomination form.  Candidates for these elections do not need to get 10 people in total to support the nomination.  This change in the law is only for the May 2021 elections.  There is no change to the Parish/Town Council requirements as they already only need two people to support the nomination. -----

**** Please be aware that ALL nomination papers MUST BE HAND-DELIVERED – we cannot accept them if they have been posted to the Returning Officer at the Civic Offices.  More information about submitting nomination papers safely will be part of the nomination pack.****

We can accept the completed nomination packs from Monday 22 March (NOT before) until 4pm on Wednesday 8 April.  Please do NOT leave submission to the last minute in case of errors. 

There was a change to legislation in 2019 which allows a candidate to withhold their home address from appearing on the ballot paper and Statement of Persons Nominated.  More details are included in the nomination pack together with the “Home Address Form” which needs to be completed as part of the process.
