Paragraph 41
 

The proposed amendment to Article 201.4 of the Code of Administrative Procedure changes the deadline for lodging appeals against violations of electoral rights from two to three days. The two-day deadline has in the past led to confusion among stakeholders in light of Article 201.6 of the same Code, which provides for a three-day deadline for lodging appeals against decisions of election commissions.17 The elimination of this divergence by the draft amendment is therefore welcome.
