HC Deb 27 July 1888 vol 329 cc670-1
MR. JAMES STUART (Shoreditch, Hoxton)

asked the President of the Local Government Board, Whether, if an occupier claim to be placed on the list of Parliamentary voters, and his claim be admitted, he will be entitled to vote for the County Council, although he has not also claimed to be placed on the list of voters for the County Council?

THE PRESIDENT (Mr. RITCHIE) (Tower Hamlets, St. George's)

An occupier can, in the same form, claim to be placed on the list of Parliamentary voters, and on the list of county voters. If he limits his claim to the Parliamentary list, he would not in respect of that claim be entitled to be placed on the list of county voters; and if not on that list would not be entitled to vote.
