The Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) Presents Its Needs to the Ministry of Economy and Finance

This press note from the Ministry of Economy and Finance reports a long meeting held on Thursday 5 November 2026 between the Minister and representatives of the Provisional Electoral Council, including its President and Director General. The discussion covered the financial and economic provisions needed to carry out the electoral process. The CEP presented its needs for organizing the coming elections. Given the new electoral calendar and the operational and logistical constraints met in the field, the note says the spending program tied to the electoral process must be updated. The MEF and the CEP began a joint analysis of needs and available budget resources and intend to continue working together on appropriate budget adjustments. The note refers to a possible increase of the amount of funding initially planned, within institutional responsibilities and budget procedures.
