Scrutineers

While the Local Government Act 1995 and the Regulations do not make specific provision for the presence of scrutineers at polls and referendums, the Commission believes it is in the public interest for the counting of votes at these polls to be scrutinised and transparent.

Accordingly, interested groups will be able to nominate scrutineers to the respective Returning Officer. Similar rules as exist at an election will apply, including limiting the number of scrutineers on the count floor at any given time. All scrutineers will need to complete an appointment form and have it endorsed by the Returning Officer.
