HC Deb 15 July 1982 vol 27 c438W
Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what arrangements exist to allow voting by proxy at parish council elections; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Mayhew

There are at present no arrangements which enable absent electors at parish and community council elections to vote by proxy, but we are looking into the possibility of providing them.
