Consideration could be given to introducing more effective sanctions for violations of the rules related to the content of paid political advertisement, as deregistration is a disproportionate sanction for minor campaign-related violations.

The legal framework should be reviewed to address identified shortcomings through an inclusive and consultative process and in a timely manner. In particular, the law should be amended to include clear prohibitions and effective sanctions against the misuse of public resources. Consideration should be given to making vote-buying a criminal offence that is a matter of public prosecution. Public sector employees should be shielded from pressure and intimidation. Procedures for establishing campaign violations should be clarified and a system of proportionate sanctions developed, with cancellation of a candidate’s registration possible only as an extraordinary measure for the most serious violations.
