Paragraph 41
 

Another suitable body for participation in the appointment of SEC members might be the Constitutional Court, which under the Constitution has the responsibility to “supervise the constitutionality and legality of elections …”.[19] The Constitutional Act on the Constitutional Court further implements this Constitutional role.[20] Neither the Constitutional provision, nor the statutory chapter, specifically authorizes the Constitutional Court to play a role in appointments. But this could nevertheless be viewed as consistent with its Constitutional and statutory role in the electoral process.
