In the draft resolution, replace paragraph 3 with the following paragraph:
"The Assembly notes that the new Hungarian Parliament, for the first time in the history of free and democratic Hungary, amended the former one-party Constitution into a new and modern Fundamental Law through a democratic procedure, after intensive debates in the Parliament and with contributions by Hungarian civil society."
Explanatory Note :
The former Hungarian Constitution was adopted by a one party parliament in 1949. In 1989, the Constitution was amended by the last, not freely elected, communist parliament. It is a matter of fact that for the first time in history, Hungary has a written Constitution which was adopted by a freely elected Parliament.
