Robert Neill: To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government with reference to clause 5 of the draft Local Elections (Ordinary Day of Elections in 2009) Order 2008, for what reason it is proposed that the provisions on elections to fill casual vacancies should commence seven rather than six months before the June 2009 elections.

John Healey: The approach that we have adopted in light of representations received, including from the Local Government Association, provides more clarity and certainty for returning officers as to when the period during which casual vacancies do not need to be filled starts. The date will be 7 November whether the election is held in May or June. This replicates the approach taken for the 2004 elections.
