Objections made after the five-day period do not suspend the application for registration.1
If you are unable to determine an objection to an application received after the five-day period in time for the next register update, the application continues as normal and you can determine it. If you publish a notice of alteration and add an applicant subject to an objection, you should move the details from the objections to applications list onto the objections to registration list.2
If you are able to determine the objection before the next register update and determine that the objection is allowed, then you must not add the applicant to your register.3
If you receive an objection to an entry already on the electoral register, you must retain the elector on the register until you determine the objection.
If you disallow an objection, then you should send a notice of your decision and your reasons for disallowing it to the objector in order to allow them the opportunity to request a hearing.4
The notice to the objector must state the grounds on which the objection has been disallowed and inform them that, unless they give you notice within three working days that they require a hearing, you will disallow the objection.5
The only time you are required to inform an elector who is subject to an objection that their application or registration has been objected to is where there is a hearing as a result of the objection.6
