All applications to register new party descriptions are assessed against the criteria set out in law. The criteria are designed to ensure voters can mark the ballot paper with confidence.<\/p>
The description referenced was registered 23 years ago. The Commission has since updated its approach to descriptions that feature individuals\u2019 names, to ensure the statutory criteria which prevent voters from being misled or confused are met.<\/p>
