The court held that the errors and omissions in the applicants' election returns were results of inadvertence, miscalculation or loss of documents and did not demonstrate bad faith; accordingly relief under s40(3) to correct returns and under s40(5) to except the applicants from strict documentary requirements was granted; the errors did not affect the overall election expense picture nor exceed the expense ceiling; corrective returns ordered within 7 days and no order as to costs.
