Electoral Commission
Who we are and what we do
We are an independent body set up by the UK Parliament. Our aim is integrity and public confidence in the democratic process.
We work to:
- register political parties
- make sure people understand and follow the rules on party and election finance
- publish details of where parties and candidates get money from and how they spend it
- set the standards for running elections and report on how well this is done
- make sure people understand it is important to register to vote, and know how to vote
- make sure boundary arrangements for local government in England are fair
Achievements and annual reports
Our annual report for 2008-2009 is now available. Past annual reports can be found in this section, including our report for 2006-07, a significant year which saw the introduction of an Electoral Administration Act.
