Those requiring photocopies of the full objections may incur photocopying charges. Copies of objection summaries are available for viewing at the places set out in the Schedule hereto.

Counter objections to objections can be made in writing to the Representation Commission if in the hands of the Commission no later than Thursday 28 June 2007. Late counter-objections i.e. those received after Thursday 28 June 2007, cannot be considered.
