[Pdf_elections] PDF Board Election Update After Closing of Nomination Period

[Setareki Macanawai]

Ms Halatau

Acknowledging receipt of your email below. The answer to both questions is yes. The timing shown on receipt of Samantha’s email is Fiji time. The withdrawal by FDPF of its nomination relates to constitutional conflict, something for the Board and 2019 General Forum to address?

Greetings Returning Officer,

Thank you for the update.

Would you please clarify a couple of queries:

1)     Was the profile from Samantha French received by the closing time of 5:00pm Fiji time - the email shows 4:34, was that time stamp Australian or Fiji time?

2)     What was the constitutional conflict that caused the FDPF delegate’s nomination to be withdrawn? This will help us think about our policies, and the constitution in particular, in advance of next year’s general forum.

Sincerely,
Tewai
