Guidance for the GLRO administering the GLA elections

Staffing

You should establish a project team to support you in carrying out your functions as GLRO. The project team should include the relevant key staff to support you in each specific function, including encouraging and co-ordinating electoral participation across Greater London and producing an information booklet for voters which complies with legislation.

In addition to yourself your project team should include:

  • CROs
  • where a CRO is not also the ERO, the ERO
  • any appointed deputies
  • other election staff members
  • any other key personnel you consider appropriate 

The project team should have a clear remit and understanding of the tasks to be carried out. At the planning stage a schedule of meetings should be prepared, and a record of each meeting should be kept as an audit trail of what was discussed and of any decisions made. Where possible, you should chair any formal meetings of the project team.
