Result of Election 2019

Purdah Period Extended Due To European Parliamentary Elections

Elections for members of the European Parliament are scheduled to be held across Europe between Thursday 23 May and Sunday 26 May*.

Therefore 'purdah' or pre-elections restrictions will continue to apply to council activities until 10pm on Sunday 26 May.

(*Note: The EU Elections are being held in the UK on Thursday 23 May 2019, however polls are being held in some EU countries up until 26 May 2019.)

During this period, local government is subject to restrictions on communications activity to ensure that councils cannot be accused of bias.
