Article 60
 

(1) On or before the day of nomination at an election a person shall be named in writing by or on behalf of each candidate as his agent for such election and such person is in this Act referred to as the candidate's agent.

(2) A candidate may name himself as candidate's agent, and thereupon shall, so far as circumstances admit, be subject to the provisions of this Act, both as a candidate and as a candidate's agent, and any reference in this Act to an candidate's agent shall be construed to refer to the candidate acting in his capacity of candidate's agent.

(3) One candidate's agent only shall be appointed for each candidate, but the appointment, whether the candidate's agent appointed be the candidate himself or not, may be revoked, and in the event of such revocation or of the death of the candidate's agent, where such event is before, during or after the election, then forthwith another candidate's agent shall be appointed, and his name and address declared in writing to the Commissioners, who shall forthwith give public notice of the same.
