Paragraph 57
 

Most previous recommendations on campaign financing and its control are addressed in the new Code. Article 178 provides for financial resources for media advertisement packages by state authorities to political parties and coalitions, but not to individual candidates. To guarantee the level playing field of all competitors during election campaigns, the OSCE/ODIHR and the Venice Commission recommend providing similar financial resources to individual candidates as well.
