In 1974 the Commission was asked to consider and report on:
(a)
whether s 143 of the Local Government Act 1960 (WA) should be extended to cover printed materials at present excluded from its ambit;
(b)
the extent to which access should be restricted to copies of local body electoral rolls which have been marked to indicate who voted; and
(c)
whether s 140 of the Act should be amended to expressly include within the definition of bribery, the transport of an elector to and from a polling place by a candidate or his supporter, with a view to influencing the elector’s vote.
