Paragraph 34
 

Article 9 par.13 states that “The Central Election Commission and the appropriate election commissions shall ensure publicity and accessibility of the general list of voters under procedures established by Georgian legislation”. It is recommended that for greater clarity, instead of general reference to the “Georgian legislation”, specific reference to the relevant numbered provisions be inserted in this provision. In addition, to contribute to updating the voters’ list, it is recommended that Article 9 provides that the voters’ list be placed on the election commission buildings for scrutiny (as required in Article 66, par. 2a) also in minority languages, particularly in those areas where other election materials are provided in minority languages.
