According to the draft law, Article 19 of the LFPE is furthermore supplemented by new paragraphs 6, 9-11 and 16 which contain more detailed procedural rules and are apparently aimed at enhancing the audit process and increasing transparency. In principle, this is a welcome development, but some modifications seem necessary. First, it is highly commendable that under the draft provisions political entities have to cooperate closely with the auditors, provide all requested documents without delay (paragraph 6) and provide unlimited access to the offices and the books (records) where data are kept (paragraph 11). That said, the rule that political entities have to provide requested documents “immediately and without delays” and that those who “do not provide full cooperation” with the auditors will be deprived of public funding for the following year (paragraph 6) lacks the necessary precision. Such unclear terms carry the risk that this provision will not – or not consistently – be applied in practice. It is therefore recommended clearly specifying in the law both the deadlines for the submission by political entities of requested documents and the exact kind of situations in which political entities shall be deprived of public funding.
