Electoral Support For Non-English Speakers And Those With Low Levels Of Literacy

An important feature of the Australian electoral system is the support provided for non-English speakers and people with low literacy levels.

A reader writes:

I have come across the argument that Australia introduced changes in its electoral system to allow people with low levels of literacy or non-English speakers to participate.

I don’t know exactly what the person was referring to, but have you come across this in any history of Australia’s voting methods?
