- Transparency requires that voter registers must be public documents that are available for inspection, without cost to the requester. The legal framework should clearly specify who may inspect, how the inspection will occur, and during what periods voter registers are available for public inspection.
- Provision should be made for political parties to monitor the voter registration process through party agents appointed by themselves. Parties should have access to the voters' roll, without charge.
