Taking into account the views of the parliamentary groups and the practice that election rules should not be changed in the year preceding elections, the government put forward an amendment recommending that election commissions need not cover at least ten polling stations and that the number of members of election commission not be reduced from ten to six.
The savings which the government had intended to make through the initially proposed amendments would be achieved by reducing the amount of compensation for work on election committees, according to Public Administration Minister Arsen Bauk.
