7 DAYS LEFT TO MAKE AMENDMENTS
The Provisional Register of Electors for St Helena was published on Friday 9 May 2014 (see press release dated 6 May 2014).
Members of the public now have seven days left to come forward if they would like to add or remove their name, remove the name of someone who has died or left the Island, correct the name of someone who has married, correct an Electoral District or change an address on the Register.
To register, persons must:
- Be over the age of 18 years with St Helena as their ordinary place of residence
- Have St Helenian status or be the spouse of life partner of a person who has such status.
Further information about registering and making amendments may be obtained from Assistant Registration Officer, Gina Benjamin, at the Castle on telephone 22470 or via email cofcouncils@sainthelena.gov.sh
The Provisional Register (and application forms) is available for inspection at the Office of the Assistant Registration Officer at the Castle, the Customer Service Centre, the Public Library in Jamestown, ANRD Offices at Scotland and all rural sub-Post Offices. Copies are also held by Assistant Registration Officers, and the Administrator’s Office on Ascension Island.
