Although online democracy has spread rapidly, unions are still required to conduct key votes, such as elections and industrial action ballots, through postal vote alone. We understand the frustration with the process and continue to lobby the government but in the meantime we have to comply and provide access to all our members to vote.

The CSP adheres to strict impartiality election rules throughout the elections voting period.
