Application of Electoral Act, 1923, to registration of local government electors.

4.—(1) Parts II. and VIII. and Schedules I. and IX. of the Principal Act shall apply to the registration of local government electors in the like manner as they apply to the registration of Dáil electors but with the following modifications:—

(a) the provisions relating to the preparation of a postal voters list shall not apply, and

(b) the registration officer shall in addition to the duties imposed on him by Rule 22 of Schedule I., make such alterations and corrections in the electors lists as he thinks necessary in order to secure that no person is registered more than once as a local government elector in any county, district, borough, poor law or town electoral area.

(2) So much of any enactment relating to the registration of local government electors as is inconsistent with Parts II. and VIII. and Schedules I. and IX. of the Principal Act shall henceforth not apply to the registration of local government electors.
