1The provisions of this Schedule (including the forms in Part V thereof) as applied to the election of county councillors shall apply to the election of district councillors subject to the provisions of this Part of this Schedule and to such other modifications and adaptations as the circumstances shall require.
2The election shall take place in the same stations, with the same returning and presiding officers and clerks as the election of county councillors.
3If there should be a contested election for district councillors but no contested election for a county councillor in any electoral division, the district council election shall be conducted in the same manner as if there were a contested election for a county councillor in such electoral division.
4The returning officer shall make and publish such other arrangements as he shall think fit for the purpose of enabling nomination papers and copies of the register of electors to be obtained and for nomination papers and notices of withdrawal to be received and dealt with at some place within, or adjoining the district, and for that purpose may by writing under his hand delegate such of his powers as he shall think necessary to the clerk of the district council or other fit person, and such person shall for that purpose be deemed to be a depute of the returning officer.
5It shall not be necessary to publish any of the notices under this Schedule elsewhere than in the district, but the returning officer may, if he thinks it expedient, publish them in any manner in which he publishes notices for the election of county councillors, and any of the said notices may relate both to the election of district councillors and to the election of county councillors.
6The returning officer shall forthwith make a return to the clerk of the district council of the persons elected as district councillors and of the persons elected as members of the county council for the electoral divisions within the district, and give or cause to be given notice in writing to the persons elected of their election.
