The Welsh Government worked closely with Bridgend Council on its early voting pilot. To ensure successful delivery of the pilot Welsh Government agreed to reimburse the council for any additional costs incurred. In total the council was reimbursed £65,243.49.
Other costs which were not specific to any single pilot, such as the changes needed for the electoral management software, were also paid for by the Welsh Government. These are set out in the Electoral Commission’s evaluation report.
