The election law should define a clear system of sanctions related to violations of its media-related provisions and indicate the competent body to address them. Furthermore, consideration should be given to reinforce the NTRBC as an independent regulatory body and to increase its capacity to oversee and fully ensure the broadcast media’s compliance with the legislation, as well as address media-related complaints and impose sanctions for possible violations during the election campaign. Decisions of the independent regulatory body should be taken in a timely manner and made public.
