New Judicial Package to Come to Parliament's Agenda in October
The 13th Judicial Package, currently under preparation, includes e-Government-based social media identity verification, the acceleration of divorce cases, and alimony regulations.
The 13th Judicial Package, being prepared by the Ministry of Justice and the AKP parliamentary group, is planned to be brought to the agenda of the Parliament in October. The new regulation includes many topics ranging from social media use to divorce cases and alimony rules.
Parliamentary Agenda and Calendar
The new legal regulation, which is being prepared by the Ministry of Justice and the ruling party, is planned to come to the agenda of the Parliament in October.
The framework of the regulation, commonly known as the 13th Judicial Package in the public eye, is expected to become fully clear with the legislative proposal to be submitted to the Parliament.
Identity Verification on Social Media
In the package at the preparation stage, a system is being worked on that will enable social media users to open accounts with their real identities.
While the option of carrying out this verification via e-Government is being evaluated, the aim is to prevent crimes such as illegal betting and drugs.
Acceleration of Divorce Cases
Another prominent topic in the package is new models aimed at concluding long-running divorce cases in a shorter time.
It is stated that if it is concluded that the marriage cannot be sustained, the divorce decision can be separated from consequences such as custody and alimony.
Alimony Regulation and Models
Following the Constitutional Court's annulment decision regarding indefinite alimony, necessary legal regulations are also being included in the package.
It is being evaluated to grant judges a broad scope in determining the alimony duration according to the economic conditions of the parties and, in some cases, for it to continue indefinitely.
