Paragraph 34
 

While the CEC does not compile protocols on the results of Municipal elections and elections to Milli Majlis, it is obliged by amendment 24 to Art. 108.2 to draw up protocols on the “general outcomes” of these elections. Such a measure is a positive step towards providing in consolidated form concise information on the “overall returns” of elections conducted at constituency level. According to 171.2, the deadline for issuing protocols is 20 days. The length of this deadline ensures that all appeals can be settled, but it does not impair the obligation to issue the protocols as soon as possible  In addition, appropriate editing of the article is necessary in line with the newly introduced terminology in Art. 1.1.32.

 

25.       To replace figure “5” with figure “2” in Article 109.1.

 

26.       To replace words “2 days” with words “Immediately, but not later than 24 hours to the Central Election Commission”; to remove the words “at latest” and to add the words “submitted to mass media and” after  the words “should be” in Article 109.3.
