The Senate is to discuss an extensive amendment to the building law that was pushed through the Chamber by the ruling coalition majority of ANO, SPD and Motorists. TOP 09 and ODS senators call it poorly prepared and insufficiently discussed with the expert public. According to the opposition parties, the proposal is so problematic that they are prepared to turn to the Constitutional Court because of it. forum24.cz ↗
Among the most prominent critics is Senator Tomáš Třetina from TOP 09. He criticizes the proposal for setting strict rules for ordinary builders, while favoring stronger and wealthier actors. He also warns that the amendment could legalize illegal buildings and weaken the protection of public interests in approving construction. ekonomickydenik.cz ↗
Třetina also criticizes the law's impacts on public health. According to his criticism, the protection of residents is sacrificed for developers' savings and faster implementation of construction. The opposition thus follows broader objections that the changes adopted by the Chamber were not sufficiently assessed and may have significant practical consequences for municipalities, residents and construction proceedings. lidovky.cz ↗
Further developments will depend on proceedings in the Senate. If the upper chamber does not amend or stop the proposal, the dispute could move to the Constitutional Court, as TOP 09 and ODS senators have announced. The amendment to the building law is thus among the most controversial items on the current Senate agenda. lidovky.cz ↗
