Draft Register of Electors

Changes and updates are made to the Register and a Draft Register (printed on pink paper) is published on 1st November each year. This incorporates all amendments which have been received by the Local Authority Offices up to the date of printing.

This Draft Register is forwarded to Council offices, Post Offices, Libraries and Garda Stations. Any member of the public may examine the Draft Register, and, if any errors or omissions occur, may complete a claim form (RFA1) and return to Meath County Council before the closing date, 25th November. These claims are then adjudicated on by the County Registrar in December and persons are notified of the allowance/disallowance of their claim.
