"What model are we laying down regarding the regulation of the procedure for the activities of the Constitutional Court? First of all, this is the Constitution of Ukraine, then there will be a law on constitutional procedure, and we propose to settle certain procedural issues at the level of the Constitutional Court regulations. This model fully meets the recommendations of the Venice Commission of December 11 and 12," Sovhyria said. The bill proposes that the Constitutional Court makes decisions by two-thirds of its composition, these are 12 judges. Today, the decision can be made by ten judges.
