Chair of the COG, Sir Anand Satyanand, said a key issue and challenge which they noted was the significant number of eligible voters whose names were not on the electoral roll.
“The Group was very disappointed to reports that highlighted the need to address the issue, have yet to be implemented,” he said.
He added that it is critical that adequate expertise and funding required by the PNGEC for creating a credible roll should be provided in a timely manner before the next election.
