 If, after the entering of information referred to in Section 38, Paragraph three of this Law in the vote counting report, packaging of the materials and ballot envelopes not used in the counting of the votes, and prior to the opening of the ballot boxes, there remains a significant number of voters not verified as regards whether the information on the person has been included in the electoral register and whether no notation has already been made there regarding the participation of this person in the relevant elections, the polling station commission may announce a break with the permission of the election commission of the relevant city or municipality. If a break is announced, the electoral rolls shall be packaged or placed in a separate sealed box before that. The relevant city or municipality election commission may determine another place where to resume the counting of the votes and to invite additional specialists from among the voters to ensure the counting of votes.
