President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih on Sunday ratified the sunset bill to postpone the local council and Women’s Development Committee (WDC) elections until the presently-declared state of public health emergency due to COVID-19 is over.
The bill entitled “The Special Bill for the Local Council Elections 2020" was passed by the parliament on April 30, after the Elections Commission (EC) submitted the matter to the parliament, seeking a legislative remedy to postpone the elections over public safety concerns.
