CHAP. VI] THE LOWER HOUSES 501 In Natal a member must be qualified as a registered elector and hold no office under the Crown other than a political office or an office in the army or navy on retired or half-pay. A member could resign and vacated his seat if he failed to attend for a whole session, ceased to hold his qualifications or to be a British subject, became insolvent, was attainted of treason, or was sentenced to imprisonment for any infamous crime, became insane, or accepted any office under the Crown, or remained a party to a Government contract for one month, but this did not apply to a purchaser of Government land or a lessee of Government land. In the Transvaal and the Orange River Colony a member must be qualified to be registered as a voter, must not hold an office of profit under the Crown other than a ministerial office or certain other specified offices, must not be an unrehabilitated insolvent, not be insane, or have acted as a registering or revising officer of a voters’ list for the division for which he stood. He could resign and he vacated his seat if he failed to attend for a whole ordinary session, ceased to be a British subject, became insolvent, was a public defaulter, or was attainted of treason or was sentenced to imprisonment for an infamous offence, became of unsound mind, or accepted any office of profit under the Crown except such offices as did not disqualify for election to membership. The qualifications for members of the House of Assembly in South Africa are as follows :— He must (a) be qualified to be registered as a voter for the election of members of the House of Assembly in one of the provinces ; (b) have resided for five years within the limits of the Union as existing at the time when he is elected ; ‘c) be a British subject of European descent. The disqualification of persons otherwise qualified, and the conditions on which the seats of members become vacated, correspond generally with the conditions on which seats in the Upper House are vacated, and it is hardly neces- sary to give them in detail. 9 Edw. VII. ¢. 9, ss. 53, 54. See below, pp. 553, 554.
