Chebukati said IEBC will issue a certificate of compliance to Political Parties whose nomination rules are compliant with the prescribed Regulations.
"However, Nomination Rules that fail to comply with the requisite regulations, shall be declared void and rejected," he said.
"Consequently, the affected Political Parties will not be issued with a certificate of compliance and shall not participate in the 2022 General Elections."
A multiagency team has already began crafting a road map for the 2022 General Election.
The team, chaired by Chief Justice Martha Koome, brings together ministries of Interior, ICT, National Treasury, IEBC, the Office of the Attorney General, the Office of the Registrar of Political Parties and the National Cohesion and Integration Commission.
Speaking to the media after chairing the first meeting at the Kenya School of Government in Nairobi, Koome said all agencies involved in running elections have committed to giving Kenyans free, fair and credible polls.
“We depend on each other to deliver on our respective mandates. I want to assure Kenyans we will carry out our mandate,” she pledged.
Koome announced that a technical committee had been formed to work on issues raised at the meeting.
“The committee will report back to us in 10 days highlighting a work plan,” she added.
Issues to be addressed in the report will include security and nomination and election disputes.
