The national list of the Polish minority was the first to be registered by the NVB, on Tuesday. The lists include that of the German, the Rusin and the Serb minorities, the NVB said.

Under Hungary’s new election procedures law, in order to send a so-called minority spokesperson to the country’s next parliament it is enough if one of their registered voters casts a valid vote on April 6 for the minority’s list.

The spokespersons will have the sole right to address the assembly. The deadline for announcing national lists is 4pm on March 4.
