The civil society organizations concerned with following up the electoral process for the next parliament, the last term of the road map, monitored many violations with the start of the advertising period on September 29, which continues until October 14, which varied between electoral spending or exploitation of public facilities and places of worship. .<\/p>\n

In this regard, these organizations issued their report on the evaluation of the candidates' performance during the first week of the election campaigning period for the first phase.<\/p>\n

Election spending<\/span><\/b>
\nFor his part, Dr. Walaa Jad Al-Karim, Director of Partners for Transparency, said that the initiative launched by the Foundation to follow up electoral spending under the slogan \u201cOur Voices Against Your Money\u201d has detected many candidates' violations of the electoral campaign outside their bank account, which was approved by the Supreme Elections Committee. Within its conditions for accepting candidates papers<\/p>\n

Gad al-Karim added that the candidates who are exceeding are ignorant of the fact that spending on electoral advertising outside the bank account is a violation of the law on the exercise of political rights, and this puts them in a real impasse before the Supreme Elections Committee, stressing that most of the violations were in Cairo and Alexandria.<\/p>\n

The director of the foundation said, "We are in the process of issuing a comprehensive final report on electoral spending irregularities in five governorates by the end of the campaign period for the first phase."<\/p>\n

Return expenses<\/span><\/b>
\nMuhammad al-Badawi, general coordinator of the \u201cWatch Ya Masry\u201d campaign, indicated that the campaign had noticeably observed a decrease in financial spending for electoral campaigning in some districts characterized by a high number of candidates, unlike previous election rounds.<\/p>\n

Al-Badawi explained that the decline in electoral spending is due to the fact that some popular and experienced candidates postponed their expenditures to the run-off, and at this stage relied on their popularity and popular base.<\/p>\n

The General Coordinator attributed this decline also to the governing rules and regulations set by the Supreme Elections Commission to limit the candidates' violations of their electoral propaganda.<\/p>\n

Exploitation of children<\/b><\/span>
\nThe \u201cWatch Ya Masry\u201d campaign to monitor the parliamentary elections - Egypt 2015 - has monitored a noticeable decline in the rates of child exploitation in electoral advertising, the distribution of propaganda leaflets, and the hanging of candidates \u2019banners and banners, to less than 30% of the total participation in publicity activities compared to previous electoral entitlements, which were marked by a high The percentage of children participating in advertising activities that varied between (posting posters on walls - distributing electoral programs and candidate pictures in front of places of worship and gathering places - hanging banners and advertising banners in the streets - participating in election rallies - mounting the roofs of open trucks loaded with loudspeakers - electoral campaign counter work. From taking off banners and posters and attacking anti-filter rallies).<\/p>\n

The campaign affirmed in a statement that the phenomenon of children in the election campaigning has been known since the 2010 People's Assembly elections, but the start of the new school year has had a positive and noticeable impact on the percentage of children participating in the advertising work and who cared and their families to prepare for studies before the start of the electoral campaign phase.<\/p>\n

Lack of committee resources\u00a0<\/span><\/b>
\nLawyer Hazem Mounir, head of the Egyptian Foundation for Training and Human Rights, said: The Supreme Committee supervising the elections has the will to monitor all violations of the electoral campaign, but it lacks many mechanisms that enable it to carry out its full duties.<\/p>\n

Munir added that it is difficult for the committee to monitor electoral spending irregularities in all districts at the level of the governorates of the Republic, pointing to the approaching polling days of the first stage and the short period of electoral campaigning that does not correspond to the gravity of the tasks.<\/p>\n

The head of the Egyptian Foundation for Human Rights added, "We have all seen the extent of the violations committed by some candidates before the start of the election campaigning period, but we have not seen any action taken against one of them."<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
