Gordon Brown has called for a general election to be held on 6 May. During the run up to this date, it is important that government doesn’t undertake any activity that could compete with candidates for the attention of the public.

To comply with this, we will not publish any new material or make changes to this site. See the full guidance on the Cabinet Office website.
