Paragraph 47
 

Article 74(5) appears to address the recommendation made in the June 2017 Joint Opinion of not fully relying on voter pre-registration in Moldova, but instead lists non-exhaustively a number of additional sources of data to be taken into account in determining the number of constituencies abroad, among them information on Moldovan voters abroad from diplomatic missions and host countries. While this may be a step forward, the actual criteria for establishing constituencies abroad are not precise. The final delimitation of constituencies in November 2017 resulted in three single-member constituencies abroad. The possibility to further clarify the criteria for determining the number of single-member constituencies abroad as well as their boundaries could be considered.
