  "text": "(This note is not part of the Rules)\nThese Rules amend the Greater London Authority Elections Rules 2007 (S.I. 2007/3541), which contain the rules governing the conduct of elections of constituency and London members of the London Assembly and the Mayor of London.\nRule 2 of these Rules amends Schedules 4 and 8 to the Greater London Authority Elections Rules 2007, which contain modifications of the standard conduct rules in circumstances where the ballot papers used at the election are to be counted manually (instead of with the use of an electronic counting system). The amendments allow for verification and counting of ballot papers in each Assembly constituency to be undertaken in more than one location within the constituency and at different times.\nA full impact assessment has not been produced for this instrument as no, or no significant, impact on the private, voluntary or public sector is foreseen.",
