There is a similar provision for the Scottish parliamentary election. Paragraph (c) to be inserted under Amendment 39A states that, "““if any of the elections referred to in subsection (4) are not held on that day, that subsection and Schedule 8 either do not apply or apply only in relation to the elections that are held on that day””."
So there is provision for a separation.
