Under section 13(1) of the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000, as modified by section 13(1A), the Electoral Commission are required to promote public awareness of current electoral systems in the United Kingdom and (so far as concerns elections to the European Parliament) in Gibraltar. Section 13(6) requires a limit to be set on the amount which the Commission may spend on that function in any financial year. This Order increases the present limit to £9,500,000 for the financial year 2014/15 because of additional work relating to the new system of individual electoral registration. Thereafter the limit will revert to the present limit of £7,500,000. The current Order (S.I. 2002/505) is revoked.
