The opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is demanding for a refund of its parliamentary and presidential filing fees for the December 7, 2020, general elections.
The party made the request in a letter dated March 2, 2021, addressed to the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensa.
As contained in the said letter, per a report from 'dailyguidenetwork', the NDC’s Functional Executive Committee (FEC) cited Regulations 46 (1) and 46 (3) of C.I. 127 to back its demand.
It says Regulations 46 (1) and 46 (3) of C.I. 127 “spell out the conditions for a refund or forfeiture of deposits made by presidential or parliamentary candidates.

It noted that regulations spell out that “a presidential or parliamentary candidate must obtain a minimum of 25% and 12.5% respectively in a general election to qualify for a refund.”
The request for refund is coming barely a day to the Supreme Court’s final ruling on the 2020 election petition hearing.
