(1) As soon as practicable after the day fixed under section 14 for the close
of the *Rolls, the Electoral Commissioner must cause a *list of electors for
each State and Territory to be compiled.

(2) The list for a State or Territory is a list of the names and addresses of
all persons whose names:

   (a)  appear on the *Roll for the State or Territory; and

   (b)  would be required, if the election were an election of Senators to be
        held on the *closing day of the poll, to be included on a certified
        list used for the purposes of the Senate election under section 208 of
        the CEA.

(3) The list is not to be compiled until claims to which subsection (4)
applies have been dealt with under the CEA.

(4) This subsection applies to a claim if:

   (a)  it is a claim under section 102 (age 17 enrolment) or subsection
        103(1) (enrolment or transfer of enrolment) of the CEA; and

   (b)  the claim is received before 8 pm on the day fixed under section 14
        for the close of the *Rolls.

(5) Nothing in this Act is to be taken to require the address of a person to
be included on the *list of electors if the person's address is not shown on
the *Roll because of section 106 of the CEA.
