Lawyer Aref El-Al: The new law abolishes the prohibition of litigation and subjects administrative decisions to judicial supervision.
Details:
The People's Assembly approved a law that addresses a number of legal problems and deficiencies in the legislation, according to what lawyer Arif El-Al explained.
The law included the cancellation of all legal texts that blocked the right to litigation, including section 53 of the Military Penal Law, which required a prosecution order from the army command or the Chief of Staff, so that the military attorney could now file a normal lawsuit against military personnel directly.
The law stipulated the repeal of all legal texts protecting administrative decisions from judicial oversight, especially those related to laws and financial legislation.
The repeal included the unfair restrictions imposed on judicial appeals, such as Income Tax Law No. 24 of 2003, which limited the right to appeal the decisions of reconsideration committees to only two cases and protected all other cases from judicial oversight.
