All the persons who report violations of the right to petition will be exempted from paying the state tax if they go to court. A bill to this effect was adopted by the MPs on December 16, IPN reports.
The bill authors, the Socialist MPs, said that after the Administrative Code took effect on April 1, 2019, only the petitioner who consider their rights were violated by the public authorities have been exempted from paying the state tax. The Administrative Code does not apply to petitions addressed to other categories of legal entities than the public authorities, as the law on administrative disputes provided earlier.
Consequently, in case of disputes involving these legal entities, the petitioners are obliged to pay the state tax stipulated by the law on the state tax. “The petitioners who file petitions addressed to other categories of legal entities than the public authorities and are obliged to pay the state case are this way discriminated,” says the informative note to the bill.
