Q400 Chairman: Has the Council taken
positive initiatives to make sure that people who get a postal
vote or proxy are not abusing the system?
Cllr Robinson: Our postal vote
system is the one where there is a return slip in a separate envelope.
I am not entirely certain what the elections office have done
in relation to this.
Q401 Chairman: Perhaps you would
let us have a note on this?see attachment 2.
Cllr Robinson: I think they watch
the procedure closely.
Chairman: Can I thank you very much for
your evidence, it has been very useful indeed. That is the end
of the Committee's proceedings today.
