After the next elections, the Venice Commission recommends designing a legislative framework which will ensure full respect of the right to free elections, and in particular:
- Reconsidering the rules on access to and loss of Haitian citizenship and the restrictions to the rights of double nationals;
- Establishing permanent electoral registers;
- Establishing an independent and impartial Permanent Electoral Council;
- Revising the system of complaints and appeals to make a final appeal to a court possible;
- Revising the legislation on political parties and media in conformity with international standards;
- Providing for rules on redistricting ensuring equal voting power and a regular revision of the allocation of seats;
- Ensuring effective legislative measures towards gender parity and proper representation of the youth.
