70 Duties of Chief Electoral Officer and Electoral Commission

• If either the Chief Electoral Officer or the Electoral Commission believe that any person has committed an offence against this subpart, the Chief Electoral Officer or the Electoral Commission, as the case may be, must report the facts upon which that belief is based to the New Zealand Police, unless the Chief Electoral Officer or the Electoral Commission, as the case may be, considers that the offence is so inconsequential that there is no public interest in reporting those facts to the New Zealand Police.
