Eligible electors of old functional constituencies urged to register

The Registration and Electoral Office (REO) today (Monday) urged all eligible electors of the 20 old functional constituencies of the Legislative Council to register as electors.

This is part of the overall campaign to appeal to eligible electors to register for the September Legislative Council elections.

A spokesman for the REO said the franchise of most of the 20 functional constituencies had been expanded.

Under the new franchise, corporate electors are replaced by individual electors in the capacity of "relevant persons" of the eligible corporations. They include company directors, sole proprietors, partners, management and executive committee members, and trade union officers.
