Overview

The Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918, enacted by the Australian Parliament, was introduced to establish the legal framework for federal elections in Australia, ensuring that the electoral process is fair, transparent, and representative of the Australian population. The Act sets out the rules for the conduct of elections and the enrolment of electors, aiming to uphold democratic principles and guarantee the right to vote. The policy objective of the Act is to ensure a democratic electoral system that reflects the will of the Australian people through free, fair, and regular elections. This particular document, issued by the Australian Electoral Commission, provides the number of electors enrolled in each division as at 30 September 2025, detailing the enrolment figures and the deviation from the average divisional enrolment for each state and territory.

Scope and Application

The Australian Electoral Commission's gazette C2025G00593 pertains to the number of electors enrolled in each division within Australia as of 30 September 2025, under the authority of Section 58 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. This Act applies to all divisions across the Commonwealth of Australia, encompassing the states of New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Western Australia, South Australia, Tasmania, the Australian Capital Territory, and the Northern Territory. It includes data on the number of electors enrolled in each division and the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment for each state and territory. This document does not detail any exclusions, exemptions, or thresholds within its scope. The application of the Act is broad, covering all electoral divisions within the Commonwealth, and it provides a comprehensive snapshot of electoral enrolment statistics for each division as mandated.

Key Provisions

The primary sections of this legislation (C2025G00593) detail the number of electors enrolled in each electoral division across Australia as of 30 September 2025, as ascertained by the Australian Electoral Commission under section 58 of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. The document includes a schedule that lists the number of enrolled electors for each division in each state and territory, along with the percentage deviation from the average divisional enrolment for each state and the Australian Capital Territory. This schedule provides a comprehensive overview of electoral enrolment statistics, which are essential for understanding the distribution of electors across various electoral divisions. The legislation imposes obligations on the Australian Electoral Commission to accurately ascertain and report the number of electors enrolled in each division by the specified date. It mandates the calculation of average divisional enrolments and the determination of the extent to which individual divisions' enrolments deviate from these averages. This ensures transparency and accuracy in the electoral process, providing a clear picture of electoral demographics that can be used for various administrative and planning purposes. Breaches of the requirements set out in this legislation could lead to civil or administrative consequences, although specific penalties are not detailed in the text. Non-compliance with the statutory requirement to accurately report electoral enrolment data could undermine the integrity of the electoral process and potentially lead to legal or administrative repercussions. The accuracy and reliability of this data are crucial for the proper functioning of the electoral system, and any failure to meet these standards could have significant implications.
