Paragraph 25
 

The Law lays down the ineligibility to hold elective office for “persons who hold the quality of member of the executive body of the political party declared unconstitutional, as well as the individuals that hold elective functions on behalf of the unconstitutional political party, for a period of 5 years from the day of the pronouncement of the decision of the Constitutional Court.” Ineligibility extends to all elected offices and applies:


- Ratione personae: a) to members of the executive body of a party declared unconstitutional and b) to members of such party who hold an elected office – on the day of the pronouncement of the Constitutional Court’s decision determining the unconstitutionality of a political party.


- Ratione temporis: five years from the day of the pronouncement of the Constitutional Court’s decision determining the unconstitutionality of a political party.
