Comments on the Law on Elections to the Parliament of the Czech Republic
This assessment reviews and comments on the “Act No.247/1995 of September 27, 1995 on Elections to the Parliament of the Czech Republic and on the Amendment of Certain other Laws”, in the version provided by the OSCE ODIHR. The assessment is based on a reading and analysis of English translations of the mentioned law and the Czech constitution. This analysis was prepared by Michael Meyer, legal expert. It should be noted that any legal review based on translated laws may be affected by issues of interpretation resulting from translation. This does not imply that the translations used are defective in any way, but simply that translation from one language to another occurs in the context of the different semantic rules of the two languages.
