37ZZZF: Timing of poll

You could also call this:

"When a poll can happen to help people make decisions"

Illustration for Local Government Act 1974

A poll is something that happens to help people make decisions. You need to know when a poll can happen, but this part of the law is no longer used. It was stopped being used on 1 July 2003, by section 266 of the Local Government Act 2002.
