Joint Opinion on Draft Amendments to Legislation on the Election of People's Deputies of Ukraine
In April 2013, the Minister of Justice of Ukraine, Mr. Oleksandr Lavrynovych, requested the Venice Commission and the OSCE/ODIHR to comment on the text of the draft laws regulating parliamentary elections, including a draft law for holding repeat elections for the constituencies where results had not been established in the 2012 parliamentary elections. In response to this request, the Venice Commission and the OSCE/ODIHR reviewed the draft amendments, and on 17 June 2013, the Venice Commission and the OSCE/ODIHR provided a written joint opinion on the draft legislation.
