Paragraph 11
 

Due to the fact that sometimes differences exist, for instance, while the existing Law says that “mass media representatives shall be provided with unlimited access to all public events connected with elections” (Article 12.4, very similar to the formula used by Article 13.4 in the R & M draft), the draft speaks about members of mass media, who “shall be guaranteed free access to all events related to elections” (Article 10.4).  So although the rule is clear, divergences may be considerable, and it is hard to distinguish if they are intentional or not.
