Ballot paper printing has been delayed indefinitely.
The Government Printer said that issues surrounding the date of the Local Government Election, and the lack of facilities to continue printing ballot papers, prompted the decision to delay the printing of ballot papers indefinitely.
The Government Printer also said that the ballot papers that have been printed already have been placed in a secure location.
The printing of ballot papers faced continuous interruptions due to the lack of proper police protection, lack of funding and related issues.
The Government Printer said that if the necessary facilities are provided, the printing of ballot papers can be completed between 25 and 30 days.
