ALDC’s Election Expenses Toolkit runs through how to complete your election expense paperwork. Our Local Election Agent Toolkit also contains important advice and resources to help this.

Victor. Since the Polititical Parties, Elections and Referendum Act 2000, local election candidate expense cannot start until the day after the last date for the publication of notice of election. This year, the last date for publication this year is 30 March, so your candidate expenses do not start until Tuesday 31 March.
Victor Scrivens says
What if my candidate has announced publicly her standing before the 30th March.? Do her expenses start from that date?
