The decision of the Constitutional Court (CHof) on the participation of depositors in elections has now been published. However, Chairperson Gloria Stirling said that it could not be published on the CHof website because the website had been hacked. At her request, the decision will be published by Starnieuws as an addendum.
The Supreme Court declared that Article 31, paragraph 6, of the Electoral Regulation is not binding. The deposit has increased by more than 1,000%. The CHof considers this disproportionate. The increase in the deposit by the National Assembly may no longer apply. The legislator now has the power to revoke, improve or supplement the increase. Measures have already been taken to this end.
The court’s verdict is public. Notably, the decision was signed by chairperson and member Maya Manohar, Rinette Djokarto and alternate member Roy Chitanie. Recently appointed members Richel Apinsa (vice chairperson) and Geeta Gangaram Panday opposed the decision. They were recently appointed on the recommendation of ABOP and VHP respectively.
