The Queen also suggested several approaches to achieving a peaceful election, stating, "We must encourage an approach that fosters joint responsibility for the process, accelerate a level playing field for contestants and all parties, ensure transparency in all aspects of the process, and provide a dispute resolution mechanism that is fair, efficient, and clear."
