Exemptions authorising the use of a printed electoral register. A municipal council may request permission from the National Electoral Commission, no later than 47 days prior to polling day, to use a printed electoral register in the municipality on polling day. The municipal council’s request shall provide reasoning as to why it believes that an electronic electoral register should not be used. The National Electoral Commission shall reply to the municipal council no later than 40 days before polling day. After the expiry of the request deadline, the National Electoral Commission may, however, consider such a request by a municipal council if compelling reasons so warrant. In such cases, the National Electoral Commission shall reply to the request as soon as possible. If the National Electoral Commission authorises the use of a printed electoral register in a municipality on polling day, only voters registered there according to the electoral register shall be permitted to cast their votes within the polling ward in question. Such voters shall not be permitted to cast their votes within a polling ward where an electronic electoral register is used. The municipality shall print the electoral register for use in voting during the polling session.
