Eight (8) months before the general election, the Fijian Elections Office [FEO] has released one of the first information booklets in relation to the conduct of the election, the Polling Agents Handbook.
In launching the Polling Agents Handbook, Supervisor of Elections, Mr Mohammed Saneem said: “We want to make sure that political parties get ample time to prepare for the election and the Polling Agents Handbook is one of the key information mechanisms for political parties to train their officials on how to monitor the election.”
“We have launched it at least eight (8) months prior to the first date the Writ can be issued and this is timely.”
The Handbook will be available in e-copy from the FEO website.
The FEO will also be distributing hardcopies of the Handbooks, 100 copies each to registered political parties.
Ends.
