Conclusion
The Committee further notes the Government’s decision to amend the scope of the Bill by including additional measures on the voting system for all Police and Crime Commissioner, Combined Authority Mayoral and London Mayoral elections after the Bill was introduced, had its Second Reading and was part-way through The Elections Bill 65 Committee stage. As a result, the House was denied an important opportunity to debate the purpose and implications of the changes early on in its legislative process.
