Political Finance
Financiamiento Político
Ninguna acción reportada
Descripción
Engage all stakeholders in a national process leading to the development and approval of the legislation and regulations. In this regard, an Independent National Commission, with representation from the National Assembly, the Executive, political parties and civil society, could be a useful mechanism to discuss modalities and suggest draft legislation on campaign financing regulations. The OAS model legislation on campaign finance, as well as efforts in other CARICOM and/or Commonwealth countries that have adopted legislation on political financing, might be a useful point of departure for these discussions.

The pertinent national authorities, including the Guyana Elections Commission, should undertake a comprehensive analysis of the events following the close of the polls on March 2, 2020, particularly the occurrences in Region Four, which gave rise to significant distrust in the initial election results and eroded confidence in the electoral system and process.

The findings of this analysis should be applied to an evaluation of Guyana’s electoral framework, including electoral legislation, regulations, procedures and practices, as well as any provisions related to electoral offences and crimes, in order to identify and remedy any areas in which weaknesses currently exist, and which may have enabled the challenges witnessed in the 2020 electoral process.

Consider a process whereby the data of registrants who have reached the age of 18 is extracted from the NRR on a monthly basis and sent to the Registration Officers of the respective divisions for field research and verification.
