A bill to compensate illegally sterilized women passed a second reading in the Czech Chamber of Deputies today. Amendments to the Health Services Act were also passed to help transform infant care facilities and replace them with care in family environments.
Closing the infant care faciltiies Today s session of the Chamber of Deputies pleases me not just as an MP, but especially as Human Rights Commissioner. I am very glad that we have managed to combine our forces to complete the second reading of the bill to compensate the victims of unauthorized sterilizations, people who were subjected to an irreversible interference with their lives, Czech MP Helena Válková told news server Romea.cz.
More than 600,000 signatures calling for early elections were handed to Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová Monday, though many constitutional lawyers in the country consider the move to be unconstitutional.
The petition was initiated by opposition parties Smer, Hlas and nationalist SNS that had constituted the government up until February of last year.
Once signatures are verified, the president shall call a referendum within 30 days of their submission. However, Justice Minister Mária Kolíková, as well as a number of prominent constitutional lawyers consider the referendum to be contrary to the principles of the rule of law, recommending Čaputová to turn to the constitutional court.
