The new draft chapter on the use of electronic means has five articles in total, and provides that the electronic means and the procedures and conditions for their use for verification of voters, polling and counting are to be defined by a CEC decree. The April 2021 ODIHR/Venice Commission Joint Opinion assessed the draft legal framework for the limited use of electronic means during the 2021 local elections. The Opinion noted that legislation should properly regulate the use of any newly introduced voting technologies and found that the draft law did not include any such regulation, and only provided that applicable rules and conditions are to be determined by the CEC. In light of this, the Venice Commission and ODIHR recommended that the draft amendments establish a regulatory framework for the use of new voting technologies taking into account international good practice.39 This recommendation was not addressed and is as such reiterated here. For ease of reference, the international good practice for legislation regulating new voting technologies, as described in the April 2021 Joint Opinion, is repeated below.
