Asked about the reactions from employees to the bills concerning court and prosecutor’s service, President Siljanovska Davkova said on Monday that there could be no independent judiciary if there were no funds. That day also saw the start of the amendment debate in Parliament on the bills.
At the session, Justice Minister Filkov rejected most of the amendments filed by the opposition, which has maintained that the “quick” changes will not result in an independent court service, but rather will produce administrative servants the executive power will have control over.
