After the promising launch of today's Kosovo Assembly session, with the adoption of first reading bills for financing political parties and declaring property, failure to do the same with the Civil Code is disappointing. Important legislation should not wait”, he wrote on the social Twitter network.
Following the promotions becoming the rest? In fact, with the current session in the first reading of the draft laws on the Political Party Financing and District of Congress, we must do the same with the Civil Code is being suppressed. Important legislation should not wait.

Otherwise, the Kosovo Assembly has not approved the new Civil Code.
Out of 61 deputies, as many as voted, there were 28, against 29 and 4 have abstained.
There were 77 deputies in the hall, but 16 did not vote at all.
Parliament Speaker Glauk Konjufca has said the weather has not had such a varied vote.
The Civil Code is not supported because many MPs are afraid it opens the way to same-sex marriage.
