Electoral law sets out a procedure for the nomination of candidates including a provision enabling a candidate to include on his or her nomination paper, and which subsequently appears on the ballot paper, a reference to the registered political party of which he or she is a candidate. Persons who are not members of a political party may enter on the nomination paper the expression "Non-Party" or may leave the space on a ballot paper blank. Current legislation is based on the premise that the expression "Non-Party" indicates adequately that a person does not belong to a political party, and any change in this matter would require an amendment of the legislation.
