The National Assembly Committee on Legal Affairs approved at first reading amendments to the State of Emergency Act, which allow quarantined citizens to vote in the forthcoming Parliamentary elections. According to the amendments, such citizens will be able to vote via mobile ballot boxes or in separate polling stations. 

There will be separate polling stations in hospitals with Covid-19 units. Citizens will be also able to vote with expired identity documents. Thus, crowds in front of the Ministry of Interior offices will be avoided. The amendments are expected to be voted at first reading in plenary hall on Friday.
