Candidates are also required to complete a home address form, which must be delivered by hand by one of those people who can deliver the nomination form and by the close of nominations. The form is not prescribed but the information that needs to be provided is set out in law.1
On the home address form the candidate must state their full name and home address.
The candidate’s home address:
must be completed in full
must not contain abbreviations
must be the candidate’s current home address
must not be a business address (unless the candidate runs a business from their home)
If any detail of the home address is wrong or omitted, the nomination is not automatically invalid if the description of the place is such as to be commonly understood.
We have produced a home address form as part of our sets of nomination papers that you can use to provide to candidates and agents for use at the election of a Police and Crime Commissioner or a Police, Fire and Crime Commissioner.
