    "content": "Most importantly, this Bill also requires the electoral commission to establish a complementary mechanism for transmission of election results whose details will be provided in the regulations. If I go into each of this and more systematically, there are various amendments that seek to align with the provisions of the Political Parties Act. They include Clauses 2, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 18 and 19, which are basically about alignment of the responsibilities of the Registrar of Political Parties vis-à-vis the IEBC because of the distinction in their various roles. One sorts out the political parties to the time they get their candidates. The candidates then get to IEBC, and IEBC takes over. So, even some nomenclature is changing between what a nomination is, who does a nomination and who does registration of candidates. So, a number of that is purely to clean up the Act so that we make the right references to it."
