Paragraph 55 Removal from party list on election as Mayor or constituency member

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

Where a person whose name is for the time being included in a party list is elected (otherwise than at an ordinary election)—

(a)

as the Mayor of London; or

(b)

as a constituency member,

his name shall be removed from that list.

(2)

For the purposes of this Part, the name of a person to whom paragraph (1) applies shall be treated as ceasing to be included in the list from the date on which he is returned as the Mayor or a constituency member, as the case may be (even if his return is void).
