If there is a canvass that year, the register shall be published “during the period starting with the end of the canvass in that year and ending with 1st December in that year or such later date as may be prescribed”. If there is no canvass, it shall be published “on 1st December in that year or by such later date as may be prescribed”. In addition, the registration officer can publish at any time in between a revised version of the register (Section 13, Representation of the People Act 1983).
