The legal framework regarding campaign regulations should be clarified. The provisions of the Political Parties Code of Conduct should be made legally binding and penalties for its violation should be imposed by the Electoral Commission on political parties. Greater clarity and legal certainty should also be provided for certain areas in the election process such as re-counting and requests for re-aggregation of results.
