All parl. parties, except IDS, back adoption of bill on implementation of Constitution

Autor: mses
ZAGREB, Oct 6 (Hina) - All parliamentary parties' caucuses, except the Istrian Democratic Party (IDS), on Wednesday welcomed the planned adoption of the bill for the implementation of the new Constitution, with the Social Democratic Party (SDP) insisting that it should be explicitly cited which constitutional provisions could be immediately applied and which provisions require the amendment of the legislation.

Agreeing that the adoption of the Constitutional Law was welcome, Josip Leko of the SDP said that it should be clearly stated that new and less strict constitutional provisions on referendum can be applied directly without waiting for the current law on referendum to be aligned with the Constitution.

Although the parliament already directly applied the constitution when in July it tried to elect new Constitutional Court judges with a two-third majority, Leko holds that when it comes to the referendum, the parliament must be "additional cautious in order to ensure legal security and prevent political arbitrariness and different interpretations".

Emil Tomljanovic of the ruling Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ) is confident that the transitional provisions of the Constitution's changes have clearly defined which parts of the Constitution cannot be directly applied without the prior adoption of required laws.

On Tuesday, representatives of the ruling coalition in the parliamentary committee for the Constitution established that in the event that the Constitutional Court decides that a referendum on labour legislation can and should be held, it is beyond doubt that the referendum will be organised according to the new Constitution.

In mid-June, the Croatian parliament amended for the fourth time the Constitution,

At that time the trade union federations began their campaign for ensuring that a referendum on labour legislation may be held.
