Paragraph 1 Supply of copy of register of parliamentary electors to petition officer: England and Wales and Scotland
As soon as practicable after the registration officer is notified by the petition officer that the petition officer has received a Speaker’s notice under section 5 of the Act (Speakers notice), that registration officer must supply the petition officer with as many printed copies of the following as the petition officer may reasonably require for the purposes of the petition —
the latest revised version of the register of parliamentary electors for the constituency to which the petition relates published under section 13(1) or (3) of the 1983 Act; and
any notice published under section 13A(2), 13B(3B) or (3D), 13BA(9) or 13BC(3) of that Act setting out an alteration to the latest version of that register.
The registration officer must also supply the petition officer with as many printed copies of any notices issued under section 13BC(6) of the 1983 Act as the petition officer may reasonable require for the purposes of the petition as soon as practicable after any such notice is issued.
Where the registration officer is under a duty to supply a petition officer with printed copies of a register or notice under this paragraph, the registration officer must also supply a copy of the register or notice in data form.
A copy of a register or notice supplied under this paragraph is to be supplied free of charge.
A person to whom a copy of a register or notice has been supplied under this paragraph must not, other than for the purposes of the petition—
supply a copy of that register or those notices to any other person;
disclose any information contained in them that is not contained in the edited register; or
make use of any such information.
