Paragraph 48
 

They seem to be based on more individualised criteria than in previous legislation, insofar as the ineligibility is linked to the past individual behaviours when such behaviours have been considered as an argument by the Constitutional Court for declaring a political party unconstitutional. At the same time, while the amendments seem to aim at narrowing the personal scope of the sanction of ineligibility, the breadth of the foreseen restrictions raises concerns, especially without the mention of the existence of gradual limitations on the prohibition to stand for elections.
