The procedural arrangements, whereby each voter’s registration number is marked on the ballot counterfoil, results in all completed ballot papers being traceable. While this may be intended as a fraud-prevention mechanism, it fundamentally undermines the secrecy of the ballot. Therefore there should be no recording of registration numbers, or any other identifying information, so that each ballot paper remains untraceable.
