Article 112 of the Electoral Code provides stricter requirements for observer organisations. Domestic organisations observing the elections can only be associations registered for the public benefit and with objects in the field of protecting citizens’ political rights. These requirements appear to be clear and proportionate. Nonetheless, it has to be assessed in the future how these requirements are implemented in practice and whether they might become an
obstacle for enhancing the electoral process through the presence of observers, in line with paragraph 8 of the 1990 OSCE Copenhagen Document and other standards of democratic elections.
