As an independent body established by Parliament, the Electoral Commission is overseen by the Speaker’s Committee.

The Electoral Commission’s corporate plan includes measures which relate to its effectiveness and to registration and it is the duty of the Speaker’s Committee to examine and approve its corporate plan.
