Article 1. (Subject)
This law regulates the transitional exercise of the legislative function, the confirmation of the continuity of the constitutional and legal order, the position of the President as acting Assembly and the convening of the first elected Assembly of the Republic.
Article 2 (Transitional constitutional authority)
(1) In the period from the founding of the Republic to the constitution of the first elected Assembly, the President of the Republic also performed the duties of acting Assembly, solely for the purpose of establishing and maintaining the constitutional, legal and institutional order.
(2) Acts passed during that period under the title of law, amendment, decision, rulebook or other regulation are considered validly passed acts of the transitional constitutional authority.
(3) Transitional powers from paragraph (1) cannot be used after the day of constitution of the first Assembly, except when this law expressly prescribes otherwise.
Article 3 (Continuity of Regulations)
(1) The Constitution, constitutional amendments, laws, decisions, regulations, individual acts and records adopted or established before the entry into force of this law remain in force if they are not contrary to the Constitution or a later published act of higher legal force.
(2) Numbering, editorial and technical irregularities of previously published acts do not affect their legal force; they are corrected only by publishing the correction or refined text in the Official Gazette.
(3) No right, status, registration, obligation or procedure ceases just because the first elected Assembly is established.
Article 4 (Limits of transitional norming)
(1) The President, as an acting member of the Assembly, may only pass acts necessary for:
1. implementation of elections and work of the Republic Election Commission; 2. protection of the continuity of public registers, budgets and digital services; 3. performance of international or institutional obligations of the Republic; 4. elimination of an obvious legal gap or conflict of regulations; 5. prevention of immediate damage to property, system security or personal rights.
(2) The act referred to in paragraph (1) is published with an explanation of the urgency and ceases to be valid if the first Assembly does not confirm, amend or replace it within 120 days from its constitution.
Article 5 (First elections)
(1) The first regular elections for the Assembly are announced by the decision of the President after the Republican Election Commission announces that the voter register, candidacy procedure and digital voting system are ready for implementation.
(2) The day of the election must be at least 45 and at most 90 days after the announcement.
(3) If, due to force majeure, it is impossible to hold the elections within the period referred to in paragraph (2), the President may extend it once by a maximum of 60 days, with a publicly explained decision and a prior opinion of the Republic Election Commission.
Article 6 (Constitution of the Assembly)
(1) The first session of the Assembly shall be convened by the President no later than 15 days after the announcement of the final election results.
(2) The session until the election of the President of the Assembly is chaired by the oldest confirmed representative.
(3) The Assembly is constituted by the confirmation of at least two thirds of the mandate and the election of the President of the Assembly.
Article 7 (Confirmation of found order)
(1) Within 120 days from the constitution, the Assembly reviews the review of all found regulations and makes a decision on their confirmation, amendment, invalidation or codification.
(2) Missing the deadline from paragraph (1) does not call into question the validity of the existing regulations.
Article 8 (Publication and entry into force)
This constitutional law is published in the Official Gazette and enters into force on the day of publication.
