Despite long-standing criticism, the 2006 Constitution of Serbia maintains the provisions related to the imperative mandate. Paragraph 2 of Article 102 of the 2006 Constitution of the Republic of Serbia provides that “a deputy shall be free to irrevocably put his/her term of office at disposal to the political party upon which proposal he or she has been elected a deputy”. The Venice Commission and ODIHR reiterate the necessity to revoke the provision from the Constitution, to eliminate elements fundamentally at odds with the international standards for democratic elections.
