I beg to move, in page 6, line 28, after "register," insert:

"or, as the case may be, on the supplementary register.''
This Amendment is necessary to make clear that the right of voting by post under the Clause is conferred, not only upon the proxies of Service voters who are registered in the Service register, published as part of the annual register, but also upon the proxies of Service voters registered in the supplementary register prepared under Clause 3. I am sure that the Committee will feel that these words should be inserted.

Amendment agreed to.

Clause, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.

CLAUSE 8 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
