Government working on new law on associations

Government working on new law on associations
Skopje, 20 November 2022 (MIA) – Foreign Minister Bujar Osmani told a press briefing on Sunday that the government is working on a systemic legal solution for associations and foundations.   “It was announced on my part that I will propose this to the government. The government came up with a decision that there will be a new law on which work is already underway, and the new law will be sent to the Venice Commission before it is adopted, which means the same goal is achieved. That’s the government's approach. It must be discussed further. However, initial indications are that a new law is needed, because this was an ad hoc solution. Now a new systemic solution for the law on associations is underway,” Osmani said in response to a reporter’s question on how far is the sending of the Law on Associations to the Venice Commission.
