Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, if he will bring forward proposals to provide for the appointment of sub-agents at any future national referendum.
Referendums held under the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000
(PPERA) have not previously allowed for sub-agents to be appointed by referendum
agents. We will consider this matter further with the Electoral Commission and the
Association of Electoral Administrators (AEA).
