Overview

The Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, enacted by the Parliament of Australia, was introduced to address the need for a structured and fair electoral system in Australia. This Act establishes the rules and regulations governing the conduct of elections for members of the Commonwealth Parliament, including the enrolment of electors and the establishment of electoral divisions. The policy objective of the Act is to ensure the integrity, fairness, and efficiency of the electoral process. Pursuant to section 58 of the Act, the Australian Electoral Commission is responsible for ascertaining and publishing the number of electors enrolled in each division as at 30 June each year, as demonstrated in the gazette detailing the enrolment numbers for each state and territory.

Scope and Application

This legislation, C2025G00359, applies to all states and territories within Australia and is enforced by the Australian Electoral Commission. It provides a detailed breakdown of the number of electors enrolled in each electoral division as of 30 June 2025, along with the average divisional enrolment and the percentage deviation of each division's enrolment from the average. The Act applies to all electoral divisions across the Commonwealth of Australia, including New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, and the Northern Territory. Each division's enrolment figures are listed in the schedule, and there are no stated exclusions or exemptions within the scope of this Act. While the Act itself sets out the enrolment data, its application and enforcement are supported by subordinate instruments that detail electoral processes and regulations.

Key Provisions

The document outlines the number of electors enrolled in each electoral division in Australia as of 30 June 2025, pursuant to Section 58 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. This schedule details the enrolment figures for each division across the various states and territories, including the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment for each state and the Australian Capital Territory. The total enrolment for Australia is recorded as 18,126,205. The operative sections of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, specifically Section 58, mandate the ascertainment and publication of the number of electors enrolled in each division as of a specified date. This information is crucial for ensuring electoral fairness and representation, as it provides a basis for determining the average divisional enrolment and identifying any significant deviations in enrolment figures across different divisions. The Act imposes obligations on the Australian Electoral Commission to accurately ascertain and publish these enrolment figures. The Acting Electoral Commissioner, Jeff Pope, is responsible for determining these figures and ensuring they are made available to the public. This process is essential for maintaining transparency in the electoral system and for facilitating the review and adjustment of electoral boundaries if necessary. In terms of legal consequences, the Act does not explicitly outline offences or penalties for non-compliance with the requirements to report enrolment figures. However, the accuracy and timeliness of this information are critical for the administration of elections and the integrity of the electoral process. Any failure to comply with these requirements could potentially undermine the fairness of elections and may lead to legal challenges or scrutiny regarding the representation of electorates. Overall, the document serves as an official record of electoral enrolment figures, supporting the democratic process by providing a transparent and accurate account of the number of eligible voters in each division.
