The legislative focus is currently on the processing of two draft bills: the ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women, and a bill concerning the health information system aimed at legalizing end-of-life declarations (advance directives). The speaker’s role, as the representative of the responsible committee, is to move the procedure forward, propose the conclusion of the first reading, and set the deadline for amendments.
