This comes after mounting concerns that many eligible voters could not find their names in the preliminary electoral roll displayed in their respective wards.
Provincial Election Steering Committee Chairman and Provincial Administrator, Lamiller Pawut said if New Ireland wants to see fair and transparent elections, the Province’s Independent Data collection system the “Village Record Book” must be used.
An agreement was signed with the Department of Provincial Government and Local Level Government affairs three years ago to begin the data collection process.
