Its amendment through another special law, such as the Annual Law on Budget Allocations for the Budget of the Republic of Kosovo, creates a wrong precedent in legal and legislative practice, bypassing the usual procedures for legal amendments in the Assembly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amendments to the Law on Salaries through the Law on Budget may raise questions about the coherence and sustainability of the legal system. Furthermore, this practice may pave the way for other amendments to specific laws through different laws in the future, which could be used inappropriately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amendments to laws should be carried out through the legislative procedures provided for, respecting the principles of transparency and stakeholder involvement. Only this guarantees that any change is well-researched, sustainable and in line with constitutional and legal principles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Consequently, we call on the members of the Assembly of Kosovo to act responsibly and protect the integrity of Kosovo\u2019s legal system, ensuring that any legal change is adopted only in accordance with constitutional and legal procedures and principles, to avoid dangerous precedents that could harm the interests of citizens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pristina, November 7, 2024 \u2013 The Government of the Republic of Kosovo, through the provision of Article 33 of the Draft Law on Budget Allocations for the Budget of the Republic of Kosovo for 2025, which has been proposed to the Assembly of the Republic of Kosovo, is establishing a harmful legal and legislative practice, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":20489,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20795","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-activities"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
