HC Deb 04 July 1918 vol 107 cc1843-4
29. Sir W. PRIESTLEY

asked the President of the Local Government Board whether the electors' lists for the Parliamentary borough of Bradford were published on the 29th June last; and, if not, whether any alteration of dates for the receipt of claims, etc., will be made so that the public may have the same time for inspection and correction of the lists as is provided by the Representation of the People Act, 1918, and the Order in Council made thereunder?

Mr. WALSH

I understand that some of the electors' lists were not fully published on the 29th June as the whole of the copies were not received from the printers, but the registration officer informs me that the full lists in proof form were deposited for inspection in his office. My right hon. Friend is expecting a further report, when he will consider the suggestion in the last part of the question.
