515.1. Between 1 June and 30 October of the year of publication of the order respecting territorial division referred to in section 111, the provisional council of a French-language school board or of an English-language school board shall, for the purpose of the exercise of the right to dissent referred to in section 515.2, draw up the list of electors of the new school board in accordance with the rules provided in the Act respecting school elections (chapter E-2.3) as if an election were to be held on 31 December of the same year.

In drawing up the list of electors, the provisional council shall verify whether the persons are Catholic or Protestant or of another religious affiliation. Every person who refuses to respond or who cannot be contacted is deemed to be neither Catholic nor Protestant.

The director general shall deposit the list of electors at the head office of the existing school boards and shall give public notice thereof. The provisions of the Act respecting school elections concerning the revision of the list of electors apply; for that purpose, the director general shall exercise the functions and powers of the returning officer.
