507. Where an error is found in a report or return that has been filed, the official agent or the official representative may correct it at any time within the period prescribed for filing the report or return.
After the period prescribed for filing, the leader of the party or the independent candidate must obtain leave from the chief electoral officer to correct the error on establishing that it was made through inadvertence. Any opposition to the application for correction shall be submitted to the chief electoral officer.
If there is no opposition to the application or the chief electoral officer considers that the opposition is not justified, the chief electoral officer shall allow the correction. Otherwise, the leader or candidate shall apply for leave to the judge having jurisdiction.
