The law includes some safeguards designed to promote transparency and openness in the preparation and conduct of parliamentary elections, including the following:
a. Article 60 of the law provides that submitters of candidate lists are permitted to have a representative monitoring the printing of the ballot papers.
b. A copy of the results at the polling station is required, under Article 76, to be displayed at the polling station.
c. Each representative of a list submitter at a PB is entitled to a copy of the PB results protocol. Representatives for the four list submitters with the highest voting results are entitled to a protocol immediately. Other list submitters are entitled to a protocol within 12 hours.
d. Article 79 permits submitters of candidate lists to inform the REC of the name of a person authorised "to be present at the statistical processing of data" at the REC.
