The extensive use of postal ballots and the electronic voting system during elections held under COVID-19 restrictions is to be scrutinised by a NSW parliamentary committee.

The Upper House inquiry will examine the local government elections held on December 4 last year, as well as the four NSW by-elections held on February 12.
