Projection time for equality of enrolments
63A Projection time for equality of enrolments
This section defines the projection time for the purpose of applying sections 66 and 73 in relation to a redistribution (the current redistribution) of a State.
The projection time is the end of the period of 3 years and 6 months after the starting time for the projection, unless the Electoral Commission determines an earlier time under subsection (3) of this section.
If the Electoral Commission is of the opinion that a further redistribution of the State will or may be required, as a result of a determination under section 48, sooner than 7 years after the starting time for the projection, the Electoral Commission may determine that the projection time will be a time that is half‑way between:
the starting time for the projection; and
the time when, in the opinion of the Electoral Commission, the further redistribution will or may be required.
A determination under subsection (3) must be published in the Gazette not later than the time when a notice is published in the Gazette under subsection 64(1) in relation to the current redistribution.
In this section:
starting time for the projection means the time of making the determination referred to in subsection 73(4).
