How we chose these

Peace and normalization agreements signed when the prime minister was from the party. Reforms and laws that an official body measured and found met their own goal. If none of the party's laws has a measured impact, we list up to 3 of its main laws by a fixed rule (Basic Laws first, then the largest official cost), even if their impact was not measured, so every party's legislative work is visible. Only laws still in force are shown.

No achievement met our evidence standard.
