HDZ Election HQ comments on draft BiH Permanent Election Law
The HDZ Election HQ assesses that the draft BiH Permanent Election Law has certain solutions that contradict the BiH Constitution, as well as the constitutions of the entities and municipalities in BiH. The HDZ said the solutions were unacceptable and at the expense of Croat people in BiH. The principal objections to the Permanent Election Law are regulations related to the election of the Croat BiH Presidency Member and delegates to the BiH Parliament House of Peoples.
