Chamber of Deputies overrides Senate on the civil service employees act
The Chamber of Deputies on Tuesday re-approved the draft of the new civil service employees act, which had previously been returned by the Senate. The governing coalition of ANO, SPD and Motoristé sobě thereby overrode the Senate's veto. The law is to replace the current civil service act from November and regulate the rules for employing state officials. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
According to the coalition's sponsors, the new regulation is meant to make it easier to replace officials and bring their working conditions closer to the Labour Code. The change affects thousands of state employees. The Senate did not support the draft and returned it to the deputies for renewed deliberation, but the Chamber stood by the original wording. idnes.cz ↗
At the same time, the deputies once again approved an accompanying amendment that limits the president's powers in filling certain positions within the state administration. The regulation also applies to the procedure for appointing and dismissing the heads of institutions covered by the law. ihned.cz ↗
Andrej Babiš's government links the changes to efforts to make the state administration function faster and more flexibly. Opponents of the draft, on the other hand, warned of a possible weakening of protection against political interference in the civil service apparatus. Following its renewed approval by the Chamber of Deputies, the legislative process continues under the rules for laws returned by the Senate. irozhlas.cz ↗
