Mr Gary Streeter (South West Devon)
The Speaker’s Committee on the Electoral Commission is established under the Political Parties, Elections and Referendum Act (PPERA) 2000. Under paragraph 11, schedule 1 of the Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 it must review the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s (LGBCE) estimate before it is laid before the House and decide whether it is satisfied that the estimate is consistent with the economical, efficient and effective discharge by the Commission of its functions.
The Committee has approved the draft supplementary estimate without modification, in line with the advice provided to it under statute by HM Treasury.
