Paragraph 59
 

Section 57 of the Act amends Section 317 of the Act on Electoral Procedure, requiring the sheets for collecting voter signatures in support of a candidate to indicate the nationality of the candidate. Albeit applying only to national minority self-government, this requirement does not appear really necessary and its conformity with international standards on public disclosure of national minority status could therefore be questioned.
