Paragraph 21
 

The organisation of elections both regular and irregular in Ukraine is regulated through several laws. As it has been already mentioned, in the case of pre-term elections there is a very limited possibility for interpreting the way how these laws can be applied and combined. In their joint 2006 opinion on the Law on elections of peoples deputies of Ukraine[5] the Venice Commission and OSCE/ODIHR recommended the authorities to assess “whether the combination of various electoral rules into a single electoral code would be feasible”. This recommendation should be seriously considered by the authorities.
