LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT 2020 - SECT 247

Request that address not be shown

    (1)     A person who is entitled as a ratepayer to be enrolled on the voters' roll under section 242, 243, 244 or 245 may lodge a request in the prescribed form with the Chief Executive Officer that the address of the person not be shown on any voters' roll if the person considers that having the address on the voters' roll places or would place the personal safety of the person or of members of the person's family at risk.

    (2)     A request must—

        (a)     give particulars of the relevant risk; and

        (b)     be verified by statutory declaration by the person making the request.

    (3)     If the Chief Executive Officer is satisfied that having the address of the person making the request shown on any voters' roll places or would place the personal safety of the person or of members of the person's family at risk, the Chief Executive Officer must ensure that the address of the person is not entered on any voters' roll.

    (4)     The Chief Executive Officer must notify the person in writing of a decision to grant or refuse a request made by a person under subsection (1).
