Electoral Commissioner Patilias Gamato says with the trust account, there will be continuous work during the end of year holidays.
Previously, all funds were remitted back to Treasury at the end of each year and then released again at the start of the new year.
“The signatories to the trust account are myself and the Secretary for Finance,” said Gamato.
“We will be managing the trust account and reporting to Government, so the election funds will be there so we will continue to work during Christmas (and) New Year, and even conduct elections in 2017.”
