Dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies in the Czech Republic – the origin and essence of applicable constitutional legislation
Abstract
The constitutional system of the Czech Republic, which is established on the principles of a parliamentary form of government, takes into account the possibility of dissolving the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic. The Chamber of Deputies is a chamber to which the government is accountable and this is the chamber in which the major part of the authority of Parliament is concentrated.
In the 15 years following it has been shown several times that the contemporary inelastic Constitutional version is not suitable for a fully functioning and stable state. Already several bills were submitted for an appropriate renewal of the Constitution, but in the meantime none were passed.
Also because of this dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies has already twice come about through a special change to the Constitution, which in the given cases was a one-time shortening of the electoral term of the respective Chambers of Deputies.
