The post-election disbursement of public funding is not conditional to the determination of lawful financing of election campaigns. The law does not prescribe the verification of campaign finance reports prior to the payment, and the deadlines for the disbursement and the submission and verification of final campaign finance reports are not aligned. Thus, the campaign funds distribution system fails to provide safeguards against circumvention of the transparency and accountability requirements, contrary to international good practice.

ODIHR and the Venice Commission recommend reconsidering the default distribution of state funding due after the elections to ensure that the availability of funds is subject to the lawful financing of election campaigns based on the verification of duly submitted campaign finance reports.
