Further measures to establish proportionality among constituencies will therefore be necessary. However, in accordance with the principle of stability of electoral law, such a further reform should not be implemented less than one year before the next elections – unless it is based on consensus between government and opposition and on broad public consultations, and in line with international electoral standards. It appears very unlikely that a further reform based on such consultations and on a political consensus could be implemented prior to the April 2026 parliamentary elections. The Venice Commission therefore recommends that a reform be adopted after the 2026 parliamentary elections, but well in advance – at least one year – of the following elections, based on broad consensus after extensive public consultations with all relevant stakeholders.
