The Beirut Bar Association elections are underway, with lawyers voting electronically to elect four members of the Bar Council. The contest is between a slate including the Lebanese Forces, the Kataeb Party, the Future Movement and independents, and candidates backed by the Free Patriotic Movement and the Shiite duo. Bar Association President Imad Martinos called for protecting financial reform and keeping the electoral dispute separate from the assessment of the accounts. He pointed to an audit conducted by Forvis Mazars and measures that included adopting a new accounting system and appointing a finance director. He stressed that reform is an institutional responsibility toward lawyers, and that voting on the current fiscal year’s financial statements does not amount to approving accounts for previous years that the General Assembly had already rejected.
