Paragraph 117
 

In Europe, recall has been rarely used in practice, but has drawn some renewed interest in recent years. Its existence depends on the constitutional tradition and openness of each country to such an instrument. In other parts of the world – mainly the Americas - it is more frequent and used mostly at regional or local level.
