Copenhagen, 24 June 2016
Dear Heads of Delegations,
Parliamentary elections will be held in Montenegro on 16 October 2016, and following
an invitation to observe, the OSCE PA will deploy an election observation mission to these
important elections.
Please find attached a registration form for Members wishing to observe the elections in
Montenegro. We kindly ask you to return the completed form to the International Secretariat at
([email protected]) as soon as possible, but no later than
16 September 2016.
Additional
information on the mission requirements and arrangements will be distributed by the
International Secretariat. 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 3 participants.
Further information, including a detailed programme, will be distributed to participants
soon. Briefings for the mission are expected to be held during the 2 days before election day in
Podgorica, 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 that only English interpretation will be provided in meetings and briefings.
Yours sincerely,
Iryna Sabashuk
Head of Administration for Election Observation
