Meanwhile, the Comelec has also approved a recommendation of the Bangsamoro Elections Special Task Force (BESTF) on the election of parliamentary sectoral representatives, to wit:
“1. AMEND the nominee limit for the Settler Communities sector such that accredited organizations within the Settler Communities sector may field two (2) candidates for inclusion in the official ballot (0B);
“2. PROVIDE that the two (2) candidates, which shall be the first two (2) names listed or the first and second ranked candidates as listed, shall be taken from the list of nominees already submitted as attachments of either the Manifestation in Lieu of a Petition for Registration as PSO or Petition for Registration as PSO or with the Manifestation of Intent to Participate in the Parliamentary Sectoral Representation System, whichever is applicable.” (Exerpt from MEMORANDUM NO.260505, Ref. No. 0350-26)
It is hoped that more filers shall soon be released by the poll body. — EDD K. USMAN (/)
