<dc:description>This Order makes various changes to the rules governing local elections in Northern Ireland. Similar changes are made to the rules governing Parliamentary elections in a separate instrument (the Representation of the People and Recall Petition (Northern Ireland) (Amendment) Regulations 2023). Many of the changes in this Order are required as a result of changes to electoral law made by the Elections Act 2022 (the “2022 Act”).</dc:description>
