Registration officers to invite applications in year of second new canvass from those with existing registrations
11
1
A registration officer in Great Britain must, on or as soon as reasonably practicable after the relevant date, give a person an invitation to make a new application for registration in a register maintained by the officer if the person—
a
has an entry in the register but has not had his or her entitlement to remain registered confirmed, and
b
has not made a successful new application for registration in the register.
2
“The relevant date” means whichever of the following comes first—
a
the date on which, at the second new canvass, a canvass form is completed and returned in respect of the address to which the person's entry in the register relates;
b
the date on which it appears to the officer that, at the second new canvass, no canvass form will be completed and returned in respect of that address;
c
31 October in the year of the second new canvass.
3
But the officer need not give an invitation at a time when—
a
the officer has reason to believe, from records available to the officer, that the person is no longer resident at that address, or
b
the person has made a new application for registration which has not been determined.
