Where a candidate list contains more than the maximum number of names, the last names on the list shall be deleted.
The candidate lists must provide the following details for each candidate:

Each candidate must confirm in writing that they accept their nomination. In the absence of such confirmation, the name of the candidate shall be deleted from the list.2
