VOSZ is planning to hand in the questionnaire to the Hungarian National Elections Office for authentication this spring. Following the authentication, VOSZ needs to collect 200,000 signatures to have a referendum on the issue. The referendum is only effective if 4 million voters appear at ballot boxes to express their opinions.

In the event that the referendum terminates the Sunday closure legislation, it would only abolish the bill for a period of three years, according to Origo.
