Rule of law
In May 2024, the overall assessment of progress in this area was 0.66, which is a slight increase compared to April 2024’s score of 0.6. Noteworthy developments include the continuation of the competition for the Constitutional Court under the new selection procedure involving international experts, the implementation of which was one of the seven priorities of the European Commission. So far, the competition is proceeding effectively.
However, the implementation of key EU recommendations regarding the renewal of the Supreme Court, the establishment of the Higher Administrative Court, and the reform of legal education has not taken place. Consequently, significant progress in the rule of law in the context of European integration has not been noted.
