Standing as a candidate at a local election
Briefing session for candidates and agents
After the close of nominations, all nominated candidates and their election agents will be invited to attend a live briefing session.
The briefing will give important information on the various election processes and regulations, including procedures at postal vote opening sessions, on polling day and at the verification and count.
The session is to be held in the Reception Room, South Shields Town Hall on Wednesday 10 April 2024 from 5.30pm.
Please make a note of this date in your diaries and make sure you provide an email address in the space provided on the back of the nomination paper and on the appointment of election agent form (where required) so we can send a reminder to you.
