The election deposit left in order to register one list of candidates shall be in the amount of twenty most recently announced average monthly wages of the national economy (hereinafter referred to as “AMWs”). A change of the place of one candidate on the list or entry of a new candidate on the list shall be in the amount of one AMW. Joining the candidates’ lists shall be in the amount of 0.3 AMW for each joint list.
