Article 26
 

An Oversight-Audit Service is set up by the Chairman of the Central Electoral Commission, within the Commission, since the designation of the election day, with a view to implement oversight of the rational use of means allocated to the electoral commissions for organization and conduct of elections, as well as for the accounting of contributions made to the election funds and oversight of those expenses. Relevant specialists can be included in the work of the service on contractual basis. Having received declarations on the use of finances in campaign funds of candidates, parties and alliances from commissions that have registered them, pursuant to procedures established in Article 25 (11) of the Code, the Oversight and Audit Service within one month checks them and submits the materials to the Central Electoral Commission for discussion. Materials about violations discovered as the result of discussion are sent, upon a decision of the Central Electoral Commission, to a court of the first instance. The procedure for the activities of the oversight-audit service is established by the Central Electoral Commission.
