The parliamentary majority voted for an amendment to the Law on strengthening the security of judges and prosecutors, which reduced the voting threshold for the appointment of members of external evaluation commissions from 61 to 51 votes. The amendment sparked criticism, including from civil society, which accused haste and lack of transparency in the adoption process, and the parliamentary opposition notified the Constitutional Court.<\/p>\n\n

Subsequently, the Parliament requested<\/a> the opinion of the Venice Commission on the legal provisions that modified the appointment procedure of candidates proposed by development partners in the external evaluation commissions of prosecutors and judges.<\/p>\n\n

Following the reduction of the voting threshold, Bernard Lavigne and Herman von Hebel were appointed members of the External Evaluation Commission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
