A member of the People's Assembly, Laith Wahid al-Balous, encouraged the Syrian people to approve a bill requiring the repeal of all legal texts that block the right to litigation or protect any administrative action or decision from judicial oversight.
Al-Balous described the decision as the long-awaited historic legislative news, and as a major step in the process of establishing a state of institutions and strengthening the rule of law in the country.
He explained that the new law ends the immunity of administrative decisions, and abolishes previous methods that made some decisions final and not subject to appeal or judicial review.
He emphasized that the law grants full sovereignty to the judiciary empowered at all levels to consider the legality of any decision made by any government agency or official, with its immediate cancellation if it is proven to violate the law.
He pointed out that the legislation guarantees full and unconditional protection to any citizen or employee who feels injustice as a result of an unjust decision, by applying to the courts in order to remove the injustice and restore his rights.
Al-Balous emphasized that this achievement represents a victory for the rights of the Syrian citizen and a confirmation that the authority of the law is above all, announcing the continuation of the work under the umbrella of the council to serve the interests of the nation and the citizen.
