Bill to allow overseas voting in Euro elections heads for parliament
By Jacqueline Theodoulou
A BILL regulating voting laws for the forthcoming European Parliament elections is expected to reach the Plenum on Thursday.
Interior Minister Neoclis Sylikiotis yesterday urged Parliament to speed up the legislation’s approval.
The minister is especially concerned with the provision that will allow the opening of voting centres for Cypriots abroad.
The aim, he told the House Internal Affairs Committee, was to give the state and consular authorities abroad sufficient time to prepare the grounds for around 30 to 40 voting centres to open worldwide, and launch an information campaign to inform Cypriots abroad on what they have to do."
