23 To avoid electoral fraud, Article 10 stipulates that « No one can be registered on several electoral lists» . To be elected, a candidate has to prepare a dossier for candidature in conformity with Article 29 and show justification of his/her nationality. A deposit is indicated and the amount varies according to the mandate. Thus, one can observe some differences between the 1998 and 2004 Electoral Codes: - In 1998 each candidate had his/her own ballot paper whereas that of 2004 provided a single ballot paper for all the candidates (Article 51: « voting is to be done with a single ballot… »; - For the 2005 legislative elections, the Authorities, on the basis of demographic and geographic criteria on the recommendations of the National Dialogue organised in September 2003, divided up the Constituencies, which now number 105 (four less than in the previous division). In view of the Constitutional provisions outined above, the CAR has the legal instruments in conformity with Article 62 of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights. However, deficiencies in relation to their application still exist. 2.4. Deficiencies observed Concerning access to employment and positions in the public service: During the period extending from 1960 (Independence) to 1983, the intake into the Central African Public Service as well as appointments to political positions, to senoir administrative and technical positions were effected without discrimination , without distinction as to ethnic, tribal, regional and political origin. With the advent of the multiparty system, and in particular during the period from 1983 to 2003, divisions and discrimination appeared in the Central African Public Administration, more pronounced under the rule of President PATASSE. Certain terms were created, for example: “the Great East or the Great North”. Selection exams for access into professional teaching establishments, entry into the Public Service, appointments to positions of responsibility and entry into the Government were done on the basis of ethnic, tribal, regional, religious or political affiliation under the deposed regime. Some senior officers were relieved of their duties because of their political convictions or their ethnic or regional origin. It was « a witchhunt ». Furthermore, another system of entry for Graduates appeared in the Public Service. It was the “quota” system, for lack of resources.
