Paragraph 70
 

The draft proposes to add a letter e1 to Article 44(1) according to which the list of documents that must be submitted in respect of a candidate should include the “integrity record of the candidate issued under the law”. The concept of “integrity” contemplated by this provision and the source of the record are unclear and may be a method of excluding candidates on arbitrary criteria. As such this provision needs to be clarified with more precise definition of this concept.
