The CDC has been asked to draft an election law that will allow the National Council for Peace and Order to help organise the next general election. The proposal was one of several that the political reform committee of the National Reform Steering Assembly submitted on Wednesday to the Constitution Drafting Committee (CDC) which will draft an election bill. The committee also proposed the EC assign the Interior Ministry to organise the election of MPs and local councillors. It also recommended that people be given the right to complain against electoral fraud and be rewarded at least 100,000 baht if the fraud is finally proved. The committee called for harsh punishment, including a lifelong electoral ban, for political party executives who fail to prevent electoral fraud by members.
