Guidance for Candidates and Agents at Police and Crime Commissioner elections

The nomination form, home address form and the consent to nomination must be submitted by hand and cannot be submitted by post, fax, email or other electronic means.1  

The certificate of authorisation and emblem request form may be submitted by post, but may not be submitted by fax, email or other electronic means.2  

The original version of each completed paper must be submitted.3   

For example, a certificate of authorisation which has been sent as an attachment to an email to be printed out would make it a ‘copy document’ and not the original document.
