The electoral system for provincial (and legislative) elections should be reviewed, in a new draft Electoral Law due to be published after the 2010 legislative elections, to make it compliant with Article 109 of the Constitution. Consideration should be given to the need measure to encourage the development of political parties. The choice of the Single Non-Transferable Vote system should be reconsidered accordingly. The choice of a more proportional system using lists of candidates could be considered, with a view to adopting a system ensuring proportionality and representation of minorities and geographical groups.
