The Police
and Crime Commissioner Elections (Amendment) Order 2020
Made - - - - 27th February 2020
This Order amends the Police and Crime Commissioner Elections Order
2012 (“the 2012 Order”). The 2012 Order sets out certain
requirements in relation to “election expenses”, as defined in
article 50 of that Order. Part 2 of Schedule 7 to the 2012 Order
sets out a list of matters which are excluded from being election
expenses within the meaning of article 50.
Article 2(3) of this Order adds to that list of matters reasonably
incurred expenditure by or on behalf of a disabled candidate that
is reasonably attributable to the candidate’s disability.
Article 3 provides for the amendment of election forms specified in
the 2012 Order in relation to a police area where, pursuant to an
order made under section 4A of the Fire and Rescue Services Act
2004, the police and crime commissioner is also the fire and rescue
authority for that area.
The effect of these amendments is that, on the specified election
forms, references to the police and crime commissioner are replaced
by references to the police, fire and crime commissioner save for
the reference in Form 7 that is referred to in article 3(2)(b).
That reference is amended by article 2(4) so that the declaration
by a candidate that the candidate is not nominated for election for
any other police area covers all other police areas.
