49. Amendment of section 67 of the principal enactment

Official English translation. Where it differs from the Sinhala or Tamil text, the Act itself says which text prevails.

Section 67 of the principal enactment is hereby amended by the repeal of subsection (2) of that section, and the substitution therefor of the following subsection:—

“(2) The returning officer shall forward to the elections officer of the district in which the electoral area is situated, all the ballot papers, a statement of the number of votes given to each candidate, the ballot paper account, tendered votes list, packets of counterfoils and the marked copies of electoral lists sent by the counting officers under section 64, endorsing on each packet a description of its contents, the date of the election to which they relate and the names of the wards in which the election was held.”.
