44—Voluntary de-registration

        (1)         A political party that is registered under this Part must be de-registered by the Electoral Commissioner if an application for de-registration is made to the Electoral Commissioner by the registered officer or some other person authorised by the party to make the application.

        (2)         An application under subsection (1) must—

            (a)         be in writing, signed by the applicant; and

            (b)         set out the name and address of the applicant and particulars of the capacity in which he or she makes the application.

        (3)         Where a political party is de-registered under subsection (1), that party, or a party that has a name that so nearly resembles the name of the de-registered party that it is likely to be confused with or mistaken for that name, is ineligible for registration under this Part until after the general election next following the de-registration.
