Income of and expenditure out of accounts


1. All monies intended to defray election expenses, whatever their origin, shall be paid into the accounts and all expenses shall be paid out of said accounts.


2. Election managers and persons authorized by them for disposal of funds out of the accounts shall be responsible for ensuring that monies paid in and out are used for their proper purpose. 


3. After the end of the electoral campaign the balance of said accounts shall be used to pay within ninety days following the poll any expenses previously incurred.


4. All claims relating to election expenses that have not been notified to managers within sixty days after the polling day, shall be void and not payable. The relevant Provincial Electoral Commission or, as the case may be, the Central Electoral Commission, may however allow exceptions to this rule on reasonable grounds.
