Registering officer to Certify the register

18.
(1) The registering officer of each electoral district shall certify the register for that electoral district as soon as conveniently may be after the claims and objections have been adjudicated upon:
(2) Nothing in this Act shall be deemed to prohibit the registering officer before certifying any register from correcting any clerical error which appears to him to have been made therein.
(3) Application may be made to the registering officer of any electoral district before the certification of the register for that district for the correction of an, existing entry relating to the applicant in that register, and, where such application is made, the registering officer shall, if he is satisfied after such inquiry as he deems fit that the entry relates to the applicant and is erroneous or defective in any particular, cause the necessary amendment in the entry to be made.
