In the draft resolution, replace paragraph 4 with the following paragraph:
"The Assembly supports the opinion of the Venice Commission by taking note that the number of subjects regulated by two thirds majority have not increased since the adoption of the new Fundamental law. In order to implement these laws with the widest possible support of the civil society, the Assembly calls upon the governing majority and all opposition parties to further cooperate on these topics."
Explanatory Note :
The criticisms formulated mostly ignore the fact that since 1990, in Hungary the number of subjects regulated by two thirds majority is high. In fact, the Fundamental Law regulates 26 subjects to be cardinal, while the former Constitution regulated 28. Thus the number of cardinal subjects has decreased.
