Lazraq clarifies on Constitutional Court ruling
The Constitutional Court confirmed that its decision regarding Law No. 66.23 concerning the regulation of the legal profession does not constitute an abolition of the law nor establish its unconstitutionality. The Court did not proceed to discuss its substance but instead postponed its ruling on the referral because the final version of the text approved by Parliament was not attached. This means that the parliamentary vote remains valid, but the law has not yet been proven to be compliant with the constitution. The avenue remains open for a new referral that adheres to constitutional procedures. Experts pointed out that this procedural error halts the constitutional review process, as the document attached to the referral must be the final text approved by Parliament, not a report or an earlier draft.
