The by-election for a new representative of the Armenian religious
group to the Cyprus House of Representatives will take place October
9th, 2005.

The new representative will succeed Bedros Kalaydjian, who died last
week at the age of 71.

Candidacies must be submitted to the Chief Returning Officer Monday
26 September 2005, between 0900 and 1230, local time.

The Ministry of Interior calls upon all Armenian Cypriots who will be
18 before or on October 9th to register at their district offices to
be able to vote.

The three religious groups, belonging to the Greek Cypriot community,
Latins, Armenians and Maronites, elect a representative each to the
House, who does not take up one of the 56 parliamentary seats.
