The Representation of the People (Scotland) (Amendment No. 2) Regulations 2014

These Regulations amend the Representation of the People (Scotland) Regulations 2001 (S.I. 2001/497). Regulations 3 and 4 provide that the declaration made by a Crown servant or British Council employee working abroad, when that person applies to be registered in an electoral register, no longer has to be sent via their employer. However, there is to be an additional requirement to include their staff number in the declaration. A declaration may now be made on-line.
