Ethics Commission appointed to monitor electioneering for parliamentary election

The ruling majority in the 9th parliament nominated Zagreb university professors Davor Derencinovic and Dubravka Hrabar as well as associate professor Zlatko Erjavec from Vinica as members of the Ethics Commission.

Opposition parties nominated Rijeka university professor Sanja Baric and professors Djordje Gardasevic and Stanko Bruno Ursic from Zagreb.

The Ethics Commission is a supra-party body comprising reputable citizens who are not members of any political party and it promotes ethical and democratic principles at elections through statements and warnings.

The Commission evaluates conduct during electioneering and the election process itself.

Its members are appointed by the Constitutional Court at the recommendation of parliamentary parties.
