If the administration finds that the list does not meet the conditions laid down in article L. 6156-3, it will inform the list delegate by means of a reasoned decision. This decision shall be given by any means giving a date certain and at the latest on the day following the closing date for submission of the lists of candidates.
If, within a period of three days following the closing date for submission of the lists, one or more candidates on a list are found to be ineligible, the administration shall immediately inform the list delegate. The list delegate may then submit the necessary corrections within three days of the expiry of this three-day period. Each ineligible candidate is replaced by a candidate designated in accordance with the conditions laid down in the third paragraph of Article R. 6152-322-1. In the absence of rectification, the list is considered as not having presented any candidate in the corresponding section.
When the administrative court is seised of a challenge to the decision of ineligibility, in application of the last paragraph of I of article 9 bis of the aforementioned law of 13 July 1983, the three-day rectification period provided for in the previous paragraph only runs from the date of notification of the judgement.
If the event giving rise to the ineligibility occurred after the deadline for submission of the lists, the candidate in default may also be replaced, without there being any need to change the date of the elections.
No other withdrawal of candidacy may be made after the submission of the lists of candidates.
The lists drawn up in accordance with the conditions laid down in Articles R. 6152-322-1 and R. 6152-322-2 shall be put online without delay on the website of the Centre national de gestion and, in any event, before the electoral material is sent to the voters. The Director General of the Centre National de Gestion shall take the necessary measures to ensure that the web page is protected from indexing by search engines.
