Government Bill
Published date: 12 May 2023

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

This bill amends the Electoral Act 1993 to remedy inconsistencies in its provisions about enrolment of sentenced prisoners that were introduced by the amendments in the Electoral (Registration of Sentenced Prisoners) Amendment Act 2020.
