In this way, the CEC responded to the appeal of the Head of AMoRe, Mykhailo Shelep, with a request to grant permission to the VRYPO "Association of Young Reformers (AMoRe)" to have official observers during the elections of people's deputies of Ukraine on March 26, 2006, in the territory of Volyn Oblast. Let us recall that according to the decision of the X Conference of the Volyn Regional Youth Public Organization "Association of Young Reformers (AMoRe)" dated October 13, 2005, an addition was made to the Statute of AMoRe. A subparagraph was added to the organization's statutory tasks: " - carrying out monitoring and observation of election processes." This decision was not accidental. After all, during its existence, the organization has repeatedly participated in election processes: conducted monitoring at the regional level, trained and organized observers, nominated its own candidates and conducted election campaigns. Most members of AMoRe during the 2002 and 2004 elections were observers or members of precinct election commissions in the city of Lutsk and in part of the oblast territory. In addition, AMoRe has experience in implementing educational campaigns such as the regional programs "Fair Elections" within the framework of the PCO "For Truth!" (2002) and "Elections in Turiisk Raion" (2004), and the all-Ukrainian campaign "I Know!" (2004). Therefore, when changes were made to the election legislation that narrowed the number of public organizations that could participate in elections, the AMoRe Council adopted a decision to make corresponding changes to the organization's Statute. During the 2006 election campaign, it is planned to engage new volunteers, not from among AMoRe members, to work as observers on election day. Special training seminars will be organized for them, during which experienced AMoRe specialists in election legislation will explain the main provisions of the Law of Ukraine "On Elections of People's Deputies" and the procedures for proper observation.
