The registration of candidates for the parliamentary By Elections for Tongatapu 4, Tongatapu 6 and Tongatapu 7, will be held on September 5-6 in Nuku’alofa. 

Electoral Commissioner Pita Vuki said today that the registration held over two-days starts from 10:00am to 3:00pm.

The By-Election, confirmed for 3 November, is to elect three new Tongatapu People's Representatives to the Legislative Assembly of Tonga.

Former parliamentarians Tatafu Moeaki for Tongatapu 4, Poasi Tei for Tongatapu 6 and Sione Sangster Saulala for Tongatapu 7 were unseated by the Legislative Assembly, after losing their appeals against certification of offences of bribery under the Electoral Act. Their election results were voided by the Court, on 9 August.
