In this Part, any reference to an employee of any person who has access to a copy of the full register shall be deemed to include any person working or providing services for the purposes of that person or employed by or on behalf of, or working for, any person who is so working or who is supplying such a service.

Where any person has been supplied with a copy of a register of electors pursuant to the Representation of the People (Scotland) Regulations 2001, or the Representation of the People (Northern Ireland Regulations 2001, that person shall be under the same duties and obligations and subject to the same penalties in relation to the copy supplied as he would have been under had that copy been supplied to him pursuant to these Regulations (and, accordingly, where that copy is a copy of a full register he shall be under the same duties, obligations and penalties that he would have been under had he been supplied with a copy of a full register pursuant to these Regulations).

Subject to any direction of the Secretary of State under section 52(1) of the 1983 Act, any duty on a registration officer to supply data under this Part imposes only a duty to supply data in the form in which he holds it.

The registration officer shall not supply data which includes information not included in the printed version of the full register otherwise than under a provision in an enactment.

The processor may not disclose the full register or the information contained in it except to the person who supplied it to the processor or an employee of that person or a person who is entitled to obtain a copy of the full register under these Regulations or any employee of such a person.

The restrictions contained in regulations 94(3), 95(2), 97(6), 97A(8), 98(9), 100(3), 101(6), 103(3), 104(3), 105(4), 106(3), 107(3), 107(8), 108(5) , 109(3) and 109A(10) below apply to a person to whom the full register, or any information contained in it (that is not contained in the edited register) has been supplied or disclosed under those paragraphs as they apply to the person to whom those regulations apply.

At the time when the registration officer publishes a version of the register under section 13(1) or (3) of the 1983 Act, (“the full register”), he shall also publish a version of the register under this regulation (“the edited register”).

The edited register shall omit the name and address of any elector whose details are included in the full register, if a request has been duly made in the form referred to in section 10(4) of the 1983 Act or in accordance with regulation 26 above by or on behalf of that elector for his name and address to be excluded from the edited register.

The edited register shall omit all anonymous entries in the register, and any information relating to them.

In other respects the edited register shall be identical to the full register (and, accordingly, shall include any mark or date which is required to be recorded against the name of any elector).

Notwithstanding the omission of names and addresses in accordance with paragraph (2), regulation 41 above shall apply to the edited register as it applies to the full register.

Unless the contrary intention appears, any reference in these Regulations to the register is to the full register.

Each revised version of the edited register shall be kept published until the coming into force of the next revised version of it.
