The contradictions between de jure and de facto

The Government developed a number of amendments in the provisions of the Law "On Local Government, Local Government and State Administration in Pridnestrovie" over two decades of legislation in force in the country. In the course of the meeting of the Committee of the Supreme Council for State Regional Policy, Minister of Justice Alexander Shevchenko noted that the law-in-draft was prepared in order to resolve the situation with the lack of local self-government agencies in some rural settlements. We are talking about several villages of the Dubossary district, which de jure refer to our republic, but de facto they are under the jurisdiction of the Republic of Moldova. The same situation exists in a number of nearby villages related to Bendery. Citizens in the current ambiguous situation are not in a position to realize their rights in terms of recognizing ownership of homeownership.

Chairman of the profile parliamentary committee, Oleg Vasilaty told about the contradictions in the current legislation.

The essence of the amendments proposed by the Government is to consolidate the possibility of assigning the powers of the local government and heads of administrations of these villages and towns to the powers of nearby local Soviets of People's Deputies and heads of other villages and settlements in the same district where these local Government agencies already exist.

The parliamentarians of the profile committee recommended the deputy corps to adopt the law-in-draft in the first reading.
