Secretaries of OSCE PA Delegations
Copenhagen, 23 October 2014
Dear Heads of Delegations,
Parliamentary elections will be held in Moldova on 30 November 2014, and
following an invitation from the Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission of
Moldova, OSCE PA President Ilkka Kanerva has decided to deploy an Election
Observation Mission to these important elections. President Kanerva has nominated
Vice-President Emin Önen to serve as OSCE Special Co-ordinator and Head of the
Albanian Delegation Arta Dade to serve as Head of the OSCE PA delegation for these
elections.
Please find attached a registration form for Members wishing to observe the
election in Moldova. We kindly ask you to return the completed registration form as well
as the CEC accreditation form with a copy of the photograph page from Members’
passports to Operations Officer Iryna Sabashuk at the International Secretariat at
([email protected]) as soon as possible, but no later than
7 November 2014.
Please note
that due to registration procedures, we may not be able to accommodate those who
register after the deadline.
To ensure geographical balance within the Assembly mission, each national
delegation may nominate up to 10% of the entire participation. We therefore invite each
national delegation to nominate up to 5 participants.
Further information, including a detailed programme, will be distributed to
participants soon. Briefings for the mission are expected to be held 2-3 days before
election day, and Members are reminded that in accordance with the OSCE PA’s Astana
Declaration of 2008, participants are expected to attend the full briefing programme as
well as the de-briefing on the day following the election.
I wish to remind you that national parliaments are responsible for their Members’
expenses and that only English interpretation will be provided in meetings and briefings.
Yours sincerely,
Andreas Baker
Director of Elections
