The revised electoral register for general elections and for local councils was published in Tuesday's Government Gazette.

Any person who had the necessary qualifications to be registered as a voter on the closing date, September 30, 2002, and whose name has not been included in this register or whose designation, address or other particulars have not been shown correctly has up to November 19 to appeal to a Revising Officer.

Any registered voter who wishes to remove someone's name from the register, or who claims that the relative designation, address or other particulars are not correctly shown in the register may also submit an appeal to a revising officer by this date.

Any person desiring to appeal to a revising officer may seek assistance at the Electoral Office.

Voters should verify their inclusion in the Electoral Register. Failure to do so may result in the loss of a person's entitlement to vote when general and local council elections, or referenda are held, the Electoral Commission warned in a statement.

A list of all persons registered as voters in each particular town or village is being made available at the relative police stations, at the local council offices and at the Electoral Office.

A revising officer may order the inclusion of a person's name, or the correction of the designation, address or other particulars or the cancellation of the registration of a voter, notwithstanding that no prior application may have been made to the commission.
