<p>The Electoral Commission is the independent regulatory body responsible for ensuring
that elections and referendums are run effectively and in accordance with the law.
Where it has reason to believe that electoral law has been breached it has the power
to investigate, impose sanctions, or refer to the police. The Government has no involvement
with Electoral Commission investigations. The Electoral Commission has produced recommendations
on campaign finance which the Government is considering. These are not specific to
individual cases but are about the wider system.</p><p> </p><p>The Article 50 notification
will not be withdrawn. The Government is committed to finding a way to fulfil the
democratic decision of the referendum, deliver Brexit and move our country forward.</p>
