Polling cards... Postcard sized bits of paper that you take to the polling station. I have never delivered these before today, i thought they were delivered by the local council officials like censers forms.

Our office had them today. They were marked as 2nd class items, have till the end of the week to deliver them.


No payment is due i was told.


True or false?

Scope of this Agreement

This agreement covers all addressed and un-addressed free election communications marked “ELECTION COMMUNICATION” and Poll Cards (excluding Proxy Poll Cards). It replaces all previous national and / or local agreements covering the delivery of election materials and poll cards from the date of this agreement.



4) Payments

All existing local payments covering the delivery of election material as stated in paragraph 2 above will remain in place, and in accordance with this agreement, with the following exceptions.
1. The minimum payment for delivering election material will be 3p per item.
2. The maximum payment for delivering election material will be 6.6p per item.
3. All hours based schemes will be converted to pence per item schemes and then the criteria in 1 and 2 above will be applied. Where delivery offices have introduced a SDD revision since the last delivery of election material then the following formula will be applied prior to the criteria in 1 and 2 above being applied.

Hope this helps you :cool

did you get an answer wiganpostie as we are not to far away from you
Our rep was told that we are not getting paid for them, but he has gone higher up the chain and is awaiting confirmation. He told me that Liverpool are getting paid for theirs, though, the lucky bleeders.
