Provisions relating to the CEC deputy chairpersons are somewhat ambiguous. Article 46 and the other articles of Section 1 of Chapter Five of the Electoral Code consistently refer to “Deputy Chairpersons” in plural. Neither Article 46 nor any other provision states how many deputy chairpersons are to be appointed or which person or body is competent to decide the number of deputy chairpersons. During the expert visit, the CEC explained that the number of deputy chairpersons is decided by the National Assembly, which also appoints them.
