Time off for standing in elections?

Post by Harry_Perkins »

I'm sure I remember reading somewhere about employees being allowed time off if they're candidates in either council or general elections? I'm standing in the coming elections just wondering if anyone has any info on this and do you apply your line manager or DOM etc?
