Political Party Name and Constitution Guidelines

Planning a party name and constitution? Review key considerations before applying.

Choosing a proposed name

Choose a clear proposed party name and review its suitability in light of current ECI directions and legal requirements.

Build a workable governance structure

The constitution should describe membership, office bearers, internal democratic processes and the party’s organisational framework.

Review before filing

Check name and constitution requirements against current official guidance. A proposed name is not approved merely because an application is filed.
