If you are not also the ERO, they will, as soon as practicable, provide you with a list of all electors who have, by 5pm, 6 working days before polling day, appointed a proxy to vote on their behalf. You must supply Presiding Officers with the relevant parts of the list of proxies and the list of postal proxies.
Electors with an in-person proxy vote in place are marked with a P in the polling station register. However, the polling station register must be marked with an A against the name of an elector whose proxy has applied to vote by post as they can no longer vote in the polling station.1
A separate list will contain the details of postal proxies.
Cross-boundary constituencies
In the case of a constituency that covers more than one local authority you will need to liaise closely with the ERO(s) at any other local authority to obtain the list of all electors for the relevant parts of the constituency who have, by 5pm, 6 working days before polling day, appointed a proxy to vote on their behalf.

Restrictions on proxy voting
A person may not have more than one proxy at any time.2
A person is not entitled to vote as proxy at the same Senedd election in a particular constituency on behalf of more than two electors who are not close relatives.3
A person can act as proxy for any number of close relatives. A close relative is defined for these purposes as spouse, civil partner, parent, grandparent, brother, sister, child or grandchild.4
A proxy would be committing an offence if they voted on behalf of more than two electors who are not close relatives in a constituency at the Senedd elections.5
