The House can inform the members of Parliament. During an upcoming election, some members will run again, but not all candidates are members of Parliament. It would be a good thing if we knew that our householder was in compliance with the rules, and would not be considered to be an electoral expense; on the other hand, there could be 10 candidates running against us and they would not know that. That's why it would be a good idea to insert a note in the envelope that is given to all the candidates once they obtain their official status so that they are informed of this. That way, we could avoid pointless complaints.
