A previous OSCE/ODIHR recommendation to avoid the possibility of arbitrary withdrawal of accreditation of an observer organisation in case of violation by individual observers has been addressed.However, Article 31.5 now provides for the possibility to deprive an observer organisation of accreditation if it supports any candidate or political party running in elections, but it is not clear how such support could be assessed in practice. As such, this provision creates room for arbitrary decisions regarding the accreditation of observers that may negatively impact the transparency of elections. It is recommended that this provision be reconsidered.
