Pending the successful outcome of post-Referendum talks with the north regarding citizenship, the future Government of the independent Southern Sudan state should enact a citizenship law, and include in both it and the draft electoral law, the establishment of basic voter eligibility for participation in elections at all levels. Ethnic or tribal criteria should be avoided in determining voter eligibility. Current or recent residence rather than family history should be the central criterion.
