iv. the Supreme Court could not itself devise a scheme or arrangements that would or might pass muster with European law; that would be for Parliament (para 74); v. neither of the appellants could have had any arguable claim for damages in respect of any breach of European law which may be involved in RPA section 3 and/or EPEA section 8 (paras 82-83). (C) European Court of Justice The resolution of these appeals does not necessitate a reference to the European Court of Justice. In so far as it raises issues of European law for determination, they are either not open to reasonable doubt or involve the application by this Court to the facts of established principles of European law (para 84). (D) Both appeals fall therefore, in my opinion, to be dismissed (para 85). Legislation 5. Entitlement to vote in parliamentary and local government elections in the United Kingdom is governed by the Representation of the People Act 1983 (“RPA”). Section 1, as substituted by section 1 of the Representation of the People Act 2000, provides that: “(1) A person is entitled to vote as an elector at a parliamentary election in any constituency if on the date of the poll he(a) is registered in the register of parliamentary electors for that constituency; (b) is not subject to any legal incapacity to vote (age apart); (c) is either a Commonwealth citizen or a citizen of the Republic of Ireland; and (d) is of voting age (that is, 18 years or over)….” Page 4
