Deputies of the Supreme Council considered a legislation, drafted by parliamentarians Galina Antyufeeva, Vitaly Kalin and Ilona Tyuryayeva. The basis for drafting the law was the sad statistics. There are 80 divorces for 100 prisoners in Pridnestrovie. Legislators propose to extend the period for considering the application for dissolution of marriage up to three months, and also give the right to the court to determine the half-year period for reconciliation of the spouses.
The legislator noted that in several European countries these terms are several times larger. For example: in Germany, reconciliation of spouses is given up to a year and a half. The authors of the law-in-draft are sure that often the decision to dissolve a marriage is taken in a certain emotional state. You need time to take a weighted decision.
The law-in-draft provoked a wide discussion. A number of deputies spoke against its adoption. According to the legislator, the complication of the divorce procedure will attract to the increase in a number of civil marriages. Alexander Korshunov supported the colleague.
The authors of the law-in-draft noted: a court decision in exceptional cases can divorced in a shorter period. Oleg Petrik spoke in support of the legislative initiative.
Legislators are ready to consider all amendments to the second reading. The law-in-draft is supported by the majority in the first reading. In addition, in the near future in each registry office there will be a staff unit of a psychologist who will be able to conduct a conversation with citizens who have applied for divorce. Deputies are sure: a comprehensive work will help correct the sad statistics of divorce.
