Session Overview:
Under the provisions of the Local Government (Elections) Act 1999 the council supplementary voters roll expires and is purged from 1 January in the year of the periodic elections. Ratepayers who are not on the House of Assembly electoral roll for the council area and wish to vote in council elections are required to lodge a new application for enrolment. Councils must prepare a fresh roll and provide it to the Electoral Commission to merge with the House of Assembly roll.
