Al-Hajji told KUNA a decree would be issued paving way for candidates to register their candidacy at least a month before elections.

Candidates will have 10 days to register their candidacy, he explained.

Al-Hajji said the cabinet, during its meeting earlier Monday, decided to put the publication of the decree on the back burner for a specific period but ahead of April 17 at most in a bid to give people enough time to run for the polls.
