Paragraph 80
 

As a result of the recent amendments, a range of sanctions were added or revised in Part Three of the Electoral Code. For instance, the new Article 477a provides sanctions if a candidate is in breach of declaring their electoral funds. In addition, there is also a new provision that provides for fines to members of election commissions who violate rules established in the Electoral Code. These amendments are welcome.
