To be eligible for inclusion in the supplement, a person must have attained 18 years of age by polling day, must be ordinarily resident at the address at which they wish to be registered and must not be already registered as an elector except in the case of a person who wishes to change their address. Application forms are available from registration authorities and completed forms, witnessed by a member of the Garda Síochána, must be sent by the applicant to arrive at the appropriate local authority not later than 24 May 2004 in order to be eligible to vote in the polls to be held on 11 June.
If a person cannot attend their local Garda station, their application may be witnessed by an official of the local authority. If because of a physical illness or disability a person cannot attend either their local Garda station or their local authority, their application form can be accompanied by a medical certificate.
