Provisional lists of voters


Six months prior to an election, the Civil Registry shall prepare the provisional lists of voters. It must send them to the police authority of each administrative district as soon as possible. Municipal and police authorities must cooperate to immediately place them in visible locations where they shall remain exhibited for public consultation for four months and these authorities shall also be responsible for their custody.


The Civil Registry shall furnish political parties with a copy of the updated register through the electronic medium provided for copying it when requested by any member of its higher executive committee or representative.


The foregoing shall be without prejudice to the use of other mechanisms guaranteeing publicity.
