The election law should clearly define how print media should mark paid election-related material. In addition, self-regulatory bodies such as the Journalist Ethics Commission could consider reinforcing professional standards and media literacy through training programmes for journalists.

Consideration should be given to ensuring the independence of the NTRBC during the whole duration of its mandate and to ensuring that any possible conflicts of interest of individual NTRBC members during the pre-election period are avoided. Furthermore, consideration should be given to enhancing the capacity of the regulatory body to oversee and fully ensure the broadcast media’s compliance with the legislation, as well as to address media-related complaints and impose effective sanctions for possible violations during the election campaign. Decisions of the independent regulatory body should be taken in a timely manner and made public.

Consideration should be given to simplifying the electoral dispute resolution system. Furthermore, consideration could be given to the development of a complaint form, which should help ensure that complainants understand the required documents for filing a complaint with an election commission or the courts and which instructs complainants on where to submit their complaint.

The election law should be amended to eliminate the existing gaps and inconsistencies so as to reduce the scope for non-uniform application of the law and the resulting problems in the adjudication of electoral disputes. The CEC should adopt additional regulations wherever the law does not provide sufficient detail. Both the CEC and the courts should refrain from delivering inconsistent decisions and should treat like cases alike. Consideration could be given to procedural rearrangements in the higher courts so that electoral disputes are adjudicated by the same panels, or that other safeguards are provided against inconsistent application of law by the same court.

Consideration should be given to rearranging practical aspects of the counting and tabulation processes, so as to facilitate the receipt and processing of election materials on election night. For instance, paper packages for election materials used by PECs could be replaced with sturdier packages to avoid damage during transportation and thus unnecessary consequences at DECs.

As previously recommended, serious consideration should be given to adopting a unified election code. In line with international good practice, it should be adopted in an open and inclusive manner, and any changes to fundamental aspects of the election system should not take effect less than one year prior to an election. The CEC should adopt all necessary regulations to supplement the legislation.

Serious consideration should be given to revising the method of formation of DECs and PECs, including by introducing a reasonable maximum number of members which corresponds to the actual needs. The possibility to establish permanent DECs could also be considered.

Since a presidential election is conducted in a single nationwide constituency, the requirement to justify requests for temporary change of voting place could be waived. The procedure could be facilitated by enabling voters to submit requests electronically and allowing changes to be valid for more than one round. Submission of requests through a proxy could also be permitted for voters who are temporarily unable to move independently. Furthermore, voters registered where voting cannot take place could be permitted to submit requests at any RMB.
