Overview

The Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 was enacted to establish the framework for federal elections in Australia, ensuring that they are conducted in a fair, free, and democratic manner. This legislation was introduced to address the need for a structured and regulated process for electing members of the Australian Parliament, thereby ensuring the democratic rights of Australian citizens. The Act was enacted by the Parliament of Australia, with its primary policy objective being to uphold the integrity of the electoral process and to provide a legal foundation for the administration of elections. This gazette, issued under section 58 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, provides an official record of the number of enrolled electors in each electoral division across the states and territories of Australia as at 31 December 2013. The document details the enrolment figures for each division, along with the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment, offering a comprehensive overview of electoral distribution. This information is crucial for the Australian Electoral Commission in ensuring that electoral boundaries and representation remain equitable and reflective of the population.

Scope and Application

The document is a gazette issued by the Australian Electoral Commission under section 58 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. It provides details of the number of electors enrolled in each federal electoral division in Australia as at 31 December 2013. It covers all states and territories, listing the enrolment numbers for each division and the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment. The data is provided for New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, and the Northern Territory. The document does not specify any exclusions, exemptions, or thresholds. However, it does note that the enrolment data may be subject to change as the electoral rolls are updated. The application of the Act is not restricted or extended through subordinate instruments in this gazette.

Key Provisions

This Gazette provides information on the number of electors enrolled in each Division of the Australian House of Representatives as at 31 December 2013, including the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment for each Division (sections 2 and 3). The data is provided for each state and territory, with the total enrolments also provided. The Acting Electoral Commissioner has determined the average divisional enrolment and the extent to which the number of electors enrolled in each Division differs from the average divisional enrolment. The Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918 requires the Australian Electoral Commission to ascertain the number of electors enrolled in each Division and to determine the average divisional enrolment (section 58). This Gazette provides the information required under this provision. There are no specific obligations or requirements imposed by this Gazette. It is simply a record of the number of electors enrolled in each Division as at a particular date, and the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment. There are no offences, penalties, or civil/criminal consequences for breach of this Gazette. It is a record of enrolment data and does not impose any legal requirements or obligations on individuals or entities. However, it is important to note that the information provided in this Gazette may be used in the preparation of electoral rolls and in the conduct of elections, and any errors or inaccuracies in the data could potentially have legal consequences.
