Local Authorities Raise Concerns Over Commonhold Bill - Call for Institutional Dialogue

The Provincial Self-Governing Authorities (PSGA) have raised objections to the bill concerning commonhold buildings, emphasizing that they were not substantially and timely involved in its drafting. They point out that the assignment of additional responsibilities without adequate preparation, a clear framework, and secured resources jeopardizes the applicability of the law. The PSGA refer to previous instances of assuming responsibilities without sufficient support, such as the pending applications and the IPPODAMOS system. They call for institutional dialogue for a realistic and implementable bill, questioning the implementation timeframe provided by the Ministry of Interior and denying that they did not submit comments.
