As you might remember from our discussion last week, with the v2026 runtime being in Kusama [a bug](https://kusama.polkassembly.io/post/356) that caused immature slashing of candidacy bonds in council was fixed, and now's the time to proceed with refunding affected accounts. Thank you to all Council members who gave feedback on the best path forward!

[Motion 239] aims to reimburse candidates and runners up who were slashed due to this bug. In order to verify hash, please review this [gist](https://gist.github.com/kianenigma/4593c340b1144305f3f4fa6e205e9782) (generated using [this snippet](https://github.com/paritytech/substrate-debug-kit/blob/b6b818ae1bc6a834f2010e8a58726231034ed8c1/remote-ext-elections-phragmen/js/src/index.ts#L597-L624)) - The motion wraps all of the reimbursement calls inside a utility.batch, creating a single batch of force transfers from the treasury to the affected accounts, to be voted by the community.

All councillors please vote at your convenience!
