Residents are warmly invited to attend the Annual Parish meeting to be held on Tuesday 9th May 2023 at 6pm at Newport Primary School (The Hall entrance through the green gates to the side of the school) when Village Groups will have the opportunity to share with local resident’s and the Parish Council details of the activities undertaken by their group over the last year and planned for the coming year. Information is included below with regards to the relevant legislation. This meeting only hears and meets the business of the electors.

The Annual Parish meeting is a meeting held of the electors. Local Government Act 1972 14 (1) states the Parish meeting of a parish shall assemble annually on some day between the 1st March and the 1st June. It is not a Council meeting, it does not act on issues or items of the Parish Council. Only electors on the electoral register can vote on any item at this meeting.

The Agenda has to be sent out with 7 working days’ notice is chaired by the chairman of the Parish Council. The parish having a separate Parish Council means that the chairman of the Parish Council shall preside. (Local Government Act 1972 16 & 17 (1) & (2)) A question can be asked by the voters or a poll called. (Local Government Act 1972 18 (1-6))

Following this meeting the Annual Meeting of the Parish Council will take place starting at 7pm.

Nominations

The relevant nomination forms are available on the website and may be downloaded, completed and printed off for submission.

 Information for candidates (eastriding.gov.uk)

Please note the following important points:

• The Notice of Election will be published on Friday 17 March 2023 and the nomination period will open on Monday 20 March 2023.
• Nominations will close promptly at 4pm on 4 April 2023. Nomination forms have to be submitted in person to Electoral Services, County Hall, Cross Street, Beverley, HU17 9BA.
• Due to the large volume of nomination papers that are normally submitted, candidates (or their representative) are being asked to make an appointment to submit their nomination forms. To book an appointment, please call 01482 393300.
• Candidates are strongly advised to send in their forms ahead of formal submission so that an informal check can be undertaken. These will need to be sent in electronically by e-mail to electoral.services@eastriding.gov.uk I would remind candidates that once nominations have been submitted, alterations cannot be made (apart from to correct very minor errors).
• If a candidate is standing for a political party, please ensure that Form 2 (Certificate of Authorisation), or if a separate Certificate of Authorisation) is being used, this is signed by a person authorised to sign on behalf of the Nominating Officer. To help with this and to avoid any undue delay, could I please ask that the electoral services team receive the proper written notification from the political party concerned. This is often called a certificate of delegated authority for the nomination of candidates and the use of a party emblem or something similar. This provides the confirmation that the person signing Form 2 does have the authority of the political party’s nominating officer to act on their behalf with regards to the nomination of candidates.
• Candidates will become eligible for a free copy of the electoral register for the parish in which you are standing. The earliest date they can officially become a candidate is the 27 March 2023, which is the last day that the Notice of Election can be published. We appreciate that candidates will want to start completing their forms as early as possible and we are encouraging the submission of papers from 20 March 2023. Any candidate wanting help with the elector numbers of their subscribers before they are able to be supplied with a copy of the electoral register, should contact the electoral services team either by e-mail on electoral.services@eastriding.gov.uk or telephone 01482 393300. Please note that the elector numbers used must be from the electoral register in force at the time of the publication of the Notice of Election, so this will be the March 2023 register update.
• A briefing for all validly nominated candidates will take place on Monday 17 April 2023 at 6pm. Details will be sent to all those candidates concerned.

Voter ID

 You will be aware that the Election Act 2022 has introduced voter identification at polling stations. Whilst there are various information and awareness campaigns being run by the electoral commission nationally, supplemented by local authorities local and regionally, I would like to encourage all candidates to help in making voters aware of the need to ensure they have an acceptable form of photographic ID with them when visiting the polling station on polling day. Ahead of polling day, a voter who does not have one of the forms of photo ID, can apply for a free Voter Authority Certificate.

Further information about this can be found at Voter ID | Electoral Commission Information is also available on the Council’s website at www.eastriding.gov.uk/elections
