Assessment of the Law on Elections of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan

This assessment reviews and comments on the Law on Elections of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan adopted by the Parliament on 29 August 2003 (herein “the Election Law”) and amendments to the Law adopted by Parliament on 27 August and 2 December 2004. The Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (OSCE/ODIHR) has previously commented on the legal framework for elections in Uzbekistan. This assessment should be viewed as complementary to earlier comments and recommendations, which are particularly relevant as many of them are based on actual observations, and in conjunction with this assessment of the written text of the Election Law, provide a comprehensive commentary on the legal framework for elections in Uzbekistan.
