To safeguard the contestants’ right to an effective remedy, legal provisions should be revised to ensure that sanctions with an irreversible effect on the exercise of political rights, including the right to be elected, are applied only when time allows for effective legal remedies or that their enforcement is suspended until the opportunity for appeal is exhausted. To prevent arbitrary de-registration of candidates, such decisions should be based on sound, relevant and sufficient evidence.

Consideration could be given to designating an independent body with means and resources to oversee campaign finance and to impose sanctions in cases of violations. Should this body remain to be the CEC, it should be vested with full oversight authority and responsibilities and should exercise them more determinedly. The reporting obligations should be made more detailed. Verification, oversight and enforcement mechanisms should be strengthened in line with previous OSCE/ODIHR and GRECO recommendations.

To enhance the transparency and oversight of campaign finances, previous OSCE/ODIHR, Venice Commission and GRECO recommendations should be addressed. A body with adequate capacity, technical expertise and independence to exercise its functions effectively should be empowered for such oversight. Should the CEC remain the competent oversight body, it should be given sufficient authority and resources to conduct effective campaign finance oversight. The law could prescribe graduated and proportionate sanctions for campaign finance violations.
