<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">Thank you Emmanuel, <br><br>Just bringing in the provision for inspection of the register from the Elections Act: <br><br>6. Inspection of register of voters<br>(1) The Commission shall cause the Register of Voters to be opened for<br>inspection <b>by members of the public</b> at all times for the purpose of rectifying the<br>particulars therein, except for such period of time as the Commission may consider<br>appropriate.<br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">The idea here is not only for voters to verify their details but also for the public to inspect the register. Inspection serves an important role in assuring the integrity of the vote by weeding out errors, dead voters etc. The register is also available in physical form at constituency offices for public inspection. <br><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif">It should therefore be possible for members of the public to view other people's voter registration details.
