In the draft resolution, paragraph 5, replace the last two sentences with the following sentences:
"This is mainly due to tendencies to limit the independence of the judiciary made through attempts to politicise the judicial councils and the courts, massive revocation of judges and prosecutors or attempts to do so and tendencies to limit the legislative power of the parliament. Moreover, corruption, which is a major challenge to the rule of law, remains a widespread phenomenon in some member States."
Explanatory Note :
Since it is a thematic report, it does not properly serve the purpose of the report to single out solely a number of countries instead of identifying threats related to the topic and making general recommendations to the all member States.
