The National Elections Commission has warned the holding of elections in 2011 would not be possible if the House adjourns without passing three draft acts submitted to it.
According to NEC Chairman James Fromoyan, the bills are crucial to the conduct of electoral activities in the country.
He named the bills as an Act to establish threshold for re-apportioning constituencies, an Act nullifying certain cities and statutory districts and an Act to amend Article 83-B of the constitution.
Mr. Fromoyan said if the bills are delayed, activities such as delimitation of boundaries and the holding of voters’ registration would be behind schedule.
The NEC Chairman is hopeful that members of the House of Representatives would pass the bills before honoring their annual break.
