Paragraph 207
 

In the other states, referendums on questions of principle, generally worded proposals or specifically worded texts may therefore coexist, as is expressly provided in Hungary and Switzerland (under cantonal law). Some legislative systems also provide simply that it must be possible to answer yes or no to the question, which does not rule out any of these forms (Bulgaria, Croatia). In Austria, the approach adopted varies according to the Land.
