Any person who satisfies the conditions prescribed in article 5(3) of the Census Order and who elects to make an individual return (“the elector”) or a person acting on his behalf may ask the enumerator to provide him with a separate form of return, but if the elector cannot for any reason obtain a form from the enumerator, he or a person acting on his behalf may apply to the census officer for such a form.

The enumerator or census officer, as the case may be, shall issue to the elector, or to the person acting on his behalf, the appropriate form I or Iw and an envelope in which the completed form of return may be sealed before it is collected by the enumerator.
