Conclusion
The Committee reiterates the importance in upholding the actual and/or perceived independence of the regulator and considers that effective scrutiny of the Electoral Commission’s work by the UK’s Parliaments is essential to ensuring the Commission is held to account in the discharge of its statutory duties. A regulatory framework which achieves this balance is crucial for upholding public confidence in the regulator and in electoral outcomes.
