Yesterday, the Hungarian Parliament approved legislation allowing the relatives of top officials to apply for public procurement tenders, as long as they live in separate households. The law was approved in a special procedure that allowed it to be passed within 24 hours of being introduced in Parliament.
“My relatives cannot apply for public procurement tenders,” Lázár said today. “We accepted a principle that a distant relative, who does not live in the same household of a top politician, can apply for public procurement tenders.”
