A draft amendment to Article 85(4) of the Election Code reduces the statute of limitations for imposing liability for violations of the campaign finance rules, from six years to three years. It should be noted that the previous increase to six years had addressed a GRECO recommendation to extend the limitation period for violations of campaign finance rules. The proposed decrease therefore represents a backtrack. As with the new three-year statute of limitations for imposing liability for the misuse of administrative resources and official position, noted earlier, it is important that this amendment coincide with concerted efforts to strengthen the institutional framework and capacity to identify and conduct investigations into campaign finance-related offences and bring violators to account. Reducing the statute of limitation period should not serve to bolster impunity for violators of campaign finance rules. In addition, long-standing and reiterated ODIHR and GRECO recommendations aimed at strengthening the campaign finance framework and its enforcement, including by establishing expedited deadlines for addressing complaints on campaign finance violations, have not yet been fully addressed.
