Article 59 Publication of time and place of inspection of returns and declarations
At an Assembly election the appropriate returning officer, within ten days after the end of the time allowed for delivering to him returns as to election expenses, shall—
publish in not less than—
two newspapers circulating in the Assembly constituency, or
three newspapers circulating in the Assembly electoral region
for which the election was held, and
send—
in the case of a constituency election, to each of the election agents, and
in the case of a regional election, to each of the election agents for individual candidates,
a notice of the time and place at which the returns and declarations (including the accompanying documents) can be inspected.
At an ordinary election or at a regional election other than at an ordinary election, the Assembly, within ten days after the end of the time allowed for delivering to it returns as to election expenses, shall—
in the case of an ordinary election, publish in not less than five newspapers circulating in Wales,
in the case of a regional election other than at an ordinary election, publish in not less than three newspapers circulating in the Assembly electoral region for which the election was held, and
send to each of the election agents for individual candidates —
in the case of an ordinary election, at regional elections at the ordinary election, or
in the case of a regional election other than at an ordinary election, at the regional election,
a notice of the time and place at which the returns and declarations (including the accompanying documents) can be inspected.
But if any return or declaration has not been received by the appropriate returning officer or the Assembly before the notice is despatched for publication, the notice shall so state and a like notice about that return and declaration, if afterwards received, shall within ten days after the receipt be published in like manner and sent to such persons to whom the first notice is sent other than an election agent who is in default or an election agent for a candidate who is in default.
