A balance should be struck between ensuring an elected official is ultimately responsible to the people, and to his/her role as a member of a political party. In order to avoid the dangers of corruption and vote buying in floor crossing, while at the same time acknowledging an elected official’s freedom of conscience, it may be useful to consider recognising an elected official who leaves a party as an independent for the remainder of his/her term.
