The appointment of polling station committee members should be made in a manner that guarantees their independence and neutrality from political parties and movements. The ad hoc TSE directive for the Constituent Assembly Elections on the criteria for the selection of the polling stations committee members, which included qualified teachers and civil servants amongst others, should be taken as an example for future election processes. Experience in previous elections should be one of the desirable requisites. The TSE should develop a more efficient means by which to pay committee members.
