17 How the Act applies in relation to secure telephone votes
(1) Except so far as provided in this Part, the Act (other than Part XVA and Schedule 2) applies in relation to a vote cast using a secure telephone vote as if the vote were a pre‑poll ordinary vote. (2) If an individual votes by a secure telephone vote, the requirements of the Act relating to the individual’s right to receive a ballot paper are taken to have been satisfied.
