Deliberations by the EASC were confidential and, except in rare circumstances, the EASC did not comment on its decisions. Typically, at each meeting, the judges reviewed draft opinions prepared by the legal staff and, if desired, reports prepared by investigators. The EASC judges decided upon the final content of all decisions. The EASC judges issued sanctions against an offending person or party in the event they found a violation of the PEC Rules and Regulations or of other provisions relevant to the electoral process. The EASC normally distributed its final decisions to the PEC, OSCE staff, the media, various international organizations, and the complainants.
All decisions are available to the public upon request.
The EASC was composed of four judges and three Bosnian legal counsel. In addition, several international lawyers served as legal counsel. Finally, a team of investigators and support staff assisted the EASC in carrying out its function. Mrs Suada Selimovic , a justice of the Supreme Court of the Federation of BiH, represented the State of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Mr Venceslav Ilic , a justice and president of the Supreme Court of the Federation, represented the Federation Entity of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
