The Committee of the Registration of Political Organizations
and licensing has made official announcement that registration period
for newly established political organizations to register their
organisations have ended on 28 December and 15 political organisation
have paid the fees and fulfilled the first process in the registration
process. In a press conference held by Registration Committee, the
chairman Mr. Abdirizak Jama Omar highlighted the need of political
organsiations to respect the legal process and not start festive
campaigns until the second stage of the registration process is
completed and the organisations that have met the criteria are announced.
The second part of the process will involve verifying the information
submitted by organisations including signatures of 1000 verified
voters in every region of the republic and the organisations are
inclusive and represent all the regions as per the political party
registration law. The 15 political organsiations will receive temporary
license that will give them official statutes to open political
organisation offices until the second process is completed. The
three political parties that receive the most votes in all the regions
in the upcoming local elections will be the only registered political
parties that will be able to compete in the parliament and presidential
elections. The political party registration law mandates reopening
the political party registrations every 10 years in order to balance
that rights of every citizen to be able to to start their own political
party and the need of developing political parties to meet the needs
and demands of Somaliland's unique blend of local needs and international
standards of political democracies. |
