    Yes and quite confusing lol. I thought we could bring someone to induction but it doesnt mention this? Can anyone shed some light? Also can we pick less than 4 districts? For the family addresses my sister has moved since i done vetting.. will this matter that im putting a different address?

    That's really weird to drop that. Would be good to find out the reasoning as I always thought it was nice touch bringing your nearest and dearest.
