# Parliamentary Voting System and Constituencies Act 2011, Paragraph 22


(1) It is the presiding officer's duty to keep order at the officer's polling station.
(2) If a person engages in misconduct in a polling station or fails to obey the presiding officer's lawful orders, the person may immediately, by the presiding officer's order, be removed from the polling station—
(a) by a constable in or near that station, or
(b) by any other person authorised in writing by the counting officer to discharge this function.
(3) A person so removed may not, without the presiding officer's permission, re-enter the polling station that day.
(4) The powers conferred by this rule may not be exercised so as to prevent a voter who is otherwise entitled to vote at a polling station from having an opportunity to vote at that station.
