Political Parties may be freely established. No cantonal, Municipal, or Federal law, decree, decision, action, inaction, or authorization can limit such right. Any law, decision, decree, action, or inaction request for registration that in effect limits, restricts, or hinders the right to political expression is considered invalid.
Political Parties’ internal organizations must conform to democratic principles.
Political Parties must publicly account for their assets and for the sources and use of their funds.
Political Parties that, by reason of their aims or the behavior of their adherents, seek to undermine or abolish the free democratic basic order or to endanger the existence of any canton or the Federal Republic of Lebanon shall be excluded from Federal and canton financing. If such exclusion is determined, any favorable fiscal treatment of these parties and of payments made to those parties shall cease.
