President of the Dominica Business Forum (DBF), Daryl Bobb, has underscored some key recommendations for amendments to the DLP electoral Bills already tabled in Parliament, to ensure the nation achieves free and fair elections. These recommendations, crafted by the DBF in collaboration with other individuals and organizations, were deliberated on August 3, 2023, following recommendations by Sir Dennis Byron. The 26 recommendations put forwardincluded removing the names of deceased individuals as well as those who have resided outside of Dominica for a period exceeding five years. The proposal emphasizes empowering the electoral commission to exercise the authority to update the list accordingly, ensuring it accurately reflects eligible voters who meet residency requirements. The DBF’s endorsement of these recommendations highlights the importance of electoral reforms in strengthening Dominica’s electoral and democratic processes.
