For the development of the new Constitution

Discipline and personnel policy, adjustment of legislation in the development of the new Constitution, the work of the bar and notaries, the execution of court rulings, parties and public associations. These and other questions were discussed during the report of the Justice Minister Sergei Khomenko to the President. The report was also attended by Deputy Head of Belarus President Administration Olga Chupris.

The Head of State recalled that amendments to the Constitution of Belarus had recently been adopted, 
“We have created a new framework for the state in the area of law and lawmaking. Of course, we should have estimated long ago how many amendments, additions and laws we need to make to develop the Constitution adopted by referendum. This work should be started immediately. The whole country should be involved in these processes.”
Aleksandr Lukashenko asked how the Ministry of Justice sees this work and when it is planned to start it. The President noted that the legislation should be brought into line with the updated Constitution within two years, and this time will pass very quickly, “We have to adopt the basic laws as soon as possible.”
The Head of State noted that he has to actively interfere and control the work of the defence attorneys and the notarial system, “Some people tried to profiteer from it, primarily for their own gains. You remember how I had to destroy this ‘gang’ as I vulgarly put it back then. I don’t think we’ve resolved all the issues over there. Defence attorneys must be under control but should act in line with the law and should be genuine defence attorneys. A defence attorney has to do their job without fearing anything but at the same time we should understand that he or she is a person of the state. And their actions should be based on norms of the law.”
The President pointed out that the country was in for big work to build parties and bring order to public associations, 
“People need to be given a clear message about what civil society is and what it consists of, and this should be reflected in the law. The law should define it clearly.”
The Head of State wondered about the performance of the court rulings enforcement service, which had been established as an independent division a considerable time before.
“And another question in connection with it — the enforcement of court rulings. Court rulings must be executed. This is why it is necessary to clean it all up and demand execution by the end of the year. If they don’t execute rulings, you know what to do,” emphasised Aleksandr Lukashenko.
