Content: The BBC announced on 24 April that it would also suspend its membership from 30 May until after the referendum on 18 September. On 25 April, the CBI announced it would try to nullify its registration. An Electoral Commission spokesman said: " We have received representations from the CBI to deregister. We are currently considering whether this is possible under the relevant legislation and will make our reasoning public when we have reached a conclusion and informed the CBI of our decision." However, the chairman of Business for Scotland disputed this would be possible: " Our understanding is that the CBI cannot nullify its Electoral Commission registration and must, having been identified as a campaigning organisation, be policed by the Commission during the referendum campaign period, just as we are ourselves will be."
