To ensure the integrity of the election results, the law should give authority to the appeal bodies to annul election results at any level, including the final results of single-mandate and the national proportional contests, if any kind of proven malfeasance might have affected the outcome. Reasonable timelines for submission and adjudication of such complaints should be established to allow for sufficient preparation and proper consideration.

When constituency boundaries are redefined, it should be done in a transparent, impartial and inclusive manner. Concrete constituency boundaries should not be enshrined in cardinal laws that require a two-thirds majority to amend and consideration should be given to introducing a formula that would allow flexibility in adjusting boundaries.
