THE new law on general administrative procedure and special administrative procedures

Abstract

Nakon prvog izvješća o stanju posebnih upravnih postupaka iz 2006. donesen je ili izmijenjen niz zakona te se broj takvih postupaka povećao sa 65 na preko 100. U međuvremenu je donesen novi Zakon o općem upravnom postupku, koji nažalost nije usvojio neka od predloženih rješenja za redukciju specijalnih upravnih procedura. Zato ne preostaje drugo nego da se formira stručna radna skupina koja bi sustavno pratila stvaranje novih propisa i predlagala redukciju posebnih postupaka na prihvatljivu razinu.After the first Report on the situation with special administrative procedures of 2006, numerous laws were adopted or amended, thus increasing the number of such procedures from sixty-five to more than a hundred. These changes were followed by passing a new Law on General Administrative Procedure in 2009. Unfortunately, the new Law has not adopted some of the suggested solutions for reducing the number of special administrative procedures. Therefore, the only viable solution at the moment is to set up an expert work group that would continuously monitor the creation of new regulations and suggest the reduction of special administrative procedures to an acceptable level
