The Bangsamoro parliament has conducted a series of public consultations to hear the proposed amendments to the draft of the electoral code.
MANILA, Philippines – A number of election watchdogs listed suggestions on how to revise the proposed Bangsamoro electoral code , one of the prerequisites for the conduct of the 2025 elections in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao .
It suggested that the provision be removed, and that the Bangsamoro Electoral Office be allowed to conduct ballot recounts and officiate hearings, and eventually make recommendations to the Comelec on matters related to granting or dismissing petitions.Article 2, Section 8 of the proposed code gives the BEC the power to approve the registration and dissolution of political parties. But the group said this might pose constitutional questions.
The BEO could make recommendations, but it “must still go through docketing and approval or reversal by the Comelec Division,” the group said.The proposed code also tasks the BEO to investigate anomalies in relation to the list of voters, and cause the delisting of voters.
