President Rumen Radev returned for new discussion in the National Assembly the provisions supplementing the Penal Code and the Road Transport Act, the press office of the presidency informed.

Among the reasons for the veto are ambiguities in the texts, according to which one and the same act is defined both as a crime and as an administrative violation and responsibilities with different gravity are duplicated, without it being clear which the applicable order will be.

According to President Radev, the persecution of the "gray economy" must be done with the mechanisms of the rule of law - precise regulations adopted in a predictable and open legislative process.
