Paragraph 63
 

 A list of ZEACs is attached as an annex to the Electoral Code, defining 66 Zones of Election Administration. The corresponding 66 ZEACs are meant to fulfil the tasks formerly vested with 100 Zone Election Commissions for national elections. It is also understood that for the election to Local Government Units, the 66 ZEACs will perform the tasks formerly vested with the Local Government Election Commissions, which were one per Local Government Unit (384 in 2007). Each ZEAC will have to organise elections in more than six local government units on average. This could represent a challenge, considering the tasks involved, in particular with regards to the registration of candidates and lists, checking signatures, handling election material, organising the count for several LGUs in one single counting centre, etc.
