If your party identity mark either starts or ends with a numeral, we are unlikely to approve it for registration in that form. Instead, we will ask you to spell it out as a word rather than use a numeral.
This is because at some elections voters are asked to rank candidates by order of preference using digits. Party identity marks that start or end with a numeral are likely to be misleading with the numbers on the ballot paper and the instructions on how to vote.
We may register a party identity mark that uses numerals in the middle, depending on how they are used and whether it is likely to mislead voters.
