I know the rule is in S94A, but that's the section that governs actually applying to be placed on the roll, which is not relevant to running for election.
The place that rule isn't is in S93, which is the relevant section.
- jacques_chester 14y agoS94 is the relevant section because it defines eligible overseas electors. S94(1)(c) gives the 6-year rule and S94A(1)(d) restates it as part of the enrollment procedure. The relevancy of S94 and S94A for overseas electors is established in Interpretation, 4(1): ""Eligible overseas elector" means an elector who is entitled under section 94 or 95 to be treated as an eligible overseas elector."
