Political Parties and Elections Bill

I am not sure that examples would be very helpful here. The Electoral Commission has responsibility for the whole gamut of election rules in this field. Where there are breaches, the job of the commission is not only to monitor them but to secure a proper result from them. That might involve using civil sanctions or it might involve a criminal case. In a much less serious case, it might well involve giving advice to the party or individual involved. Its job goes beyond monitoring—in effect, just observing—and acting as a regulator, telling those whom it regulates, "Look, you’ve got this wrong. This is what you should perhaps do in the future". That is a very broad role but it is something that should happen practically every day.
