**Notice regarding eligibility**
The eligibility assessments recorded in this list reflect the information available to the Electoral and Nomination Commission (ENC) and the candidates' circumstances as assessed at the date of publication. Confirmation of eligibility does not dispense with the eligibility requirements applicable at the date of election under Article 6.1 of the ISSF Electoral Rules.
In accordance with the continuing disclosure obligation set out in the Call for Candidates, candidates must inform the ENC without delay of any material change affecting their eligibility, integrity declaration, interests or availability before the election.
Within its mandate under the applicable ISSF rules, the ENC reserves the right to request further information and reassess a candidate’s eligibility before the election if relevant new information or a change in circumstances comes to its attention. Any resulting decision will be taken in accordance with the applicable procedural requirements, notified to the candidate in writing with reasons, and reflected in an updated list as appropriate.
Inclusion in this list does not prevent any subsequent decision of a competent judicial, disciplinary or integrity body from taking effect in accordance with the applicable rules.
