20. Correction of lists
The registration officer shall make such additions to and corrections of
the electors’ list and the list of claimants as are required to give effect to his
decision on any objection or claim, and shall also make any such correction
in those lists, whether by way of the removal of duplicate entries (subject to
any expression of choice by the persons affected as to those entries), the
expunging of the names of persons who are dead or subject to any legal incapacity, the correction of clerical errors or otherwise, in order to ensure that
no person is registered as an elector in respect of more than one qualification
in the same electoral area and that the list will be complete and accurate as
a register.
