1. The security gates to the polling centre at Speke Hotel have been
immediately closed and voting on site immediately suspended.

2. Since this development was not planned, I have not yet figured out how
to suspend elections online and that may take some time, as my IT team
works out how to stop the election before the time that was initially designated in the system.

I regret any inconveniences caused.”

However, online voting had been effected by yesterday 27th August 2021 and running until now, the Chairman has confirmed that it hasn’t been stopped by the IT staff are working towards stopping it.
