Electoral Law and PCC Rule Book need Govt. amendment.
The PCC's Deputy is UN-ELECTED, and often of the same political party, and a "cronie", of the PCC. The voters who did NOT vote FOR the new PCC would be fairly served by appionting the "runner-up" to the Deputy post.
Implementation of such a regime would take legislation - modification of Electoral Law, and modification of the "Rule Book" for newly-appointed PCCs, at the very least. Both of those tasks are the responsibility of Government.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure whether you want the runner up in PCC elections just to be made Deputy PCC, or if you want other changes to the PCC rulebook.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
