I.-Any elector who meets the conditions set out in Article L. 713-4 may stand as a candidate in his sub-category or, failing that, in his professional category. No person may be a candidate in more than one sub-category or category.
II.-Candidates shall be nominated either for a term of office as a member of a regional chamber of commerce and industry that runs concurrently with a term of office as a member of a territorial chamber of commerce and industry, or for a term of office as a member of a territorial chamber of commerce and industry only.
An application to participate in a delegation governed by articles R. 711-18 et seq may be attached to these applications.
Any candidate for election as a member of a regional chamber of commerce and industry shall stand with a substitute of the opposite sex. Candidatures that do not meet this condition are inadmissible.
Where the number of seats allocated, within a regional chamber of commerce and industry, to a territorial chamber of commerce and industry does not allow the latter to have a representative within all the sub-categories selected for this election, all the voters in the category concerned may stand as candidates. Full candidates must stand with a substitute from a sub-category other than their own. Voters in one category may vote for all candidates in that category. The result of the election allows the titular representative to be assigned to a sub-category of the regional chamber of commerce and industry.
III.-No one may be a candidate in more than one constituency of a territorial chamber of commerce and industry.
No person may be both a candidate for election as a full member of a regional chamber of commerce and industry and a substitute for another candidate.
No person may appear as a substitute on more than one nomination paper.
IV.-The age of eligibility is assessed on the date of the last day of the ballot.
The conditions of duration provided for in 1° and 2° of I of article L. 713-4 are assessed on the date on which candidacies are filed.
