    HCMA457/2023

    The application for a certificate was dismissed because the proposed constitutional challenges to section 27A ECICO were not reasonably arguable nor of great and general importance given the clear legitimate aim to protect electoral integrity in the unique historical and legislative context, the rational connection and proportionality of the Provision (limited to election period, public activities and containing defences), and the appropriate deference to legislative judgment and the NPC Decision.
