"FRAMEWORK LAW" TO BE SUBMITTED TO THE SPEAKER OF THE PARLIAMENT
It is anticipated that the proposal for the "framework law," which was stated to be submitted last week in the TBMM but whose work is ongoing, will be submitted to the Speaker of the Parliament this week.
It is stated that the "framework law" proposal could be submitted at the beginning of this week, and after being discussed in the Justice Committee, it could be taken up in the General Assembly without waiting for the 2-day legal period to be completed. As another option, it is speculated that the proposal will be submitted to the Speaker of the Parliament towards the end of the week, in which case it will be discussed in the Justice Committee this week and brought to the General Assembly next week.
After the proposal for the "framework law" is enacted, the Parliament is planned to go into recess. It is noted that deputies have been informed that the Parliament's work could extend until August 14.
TIHEK, OMBUDSMAN INSTITUTION AND KVKK OFFICIALS TO BE HEARD IN THE COMMISSION INVESTIGATING SCHOOL ATTACKS
This week, officials from the Ombudsman Institution, the Human Rights and Equality Institution of Türkiye (TIHEK), and the Personal Data Protection Authority (KVKK) will make presentations to the commission established in the TBMM to investigate the reasons for the school attacks in Şanlıurfa and Kahramanmaraş.
PROPOSAL ON CHILDREN PUSHED INTO CRIME TO BE DISCUSSED
In the TBMM, apart from the "framework law," it is expected that discussions on the Proposal for the Amendment of the Child Protection Law and Certain Laws regarding children who commit crimes will begin in the General Assembly this week.
With the proposal, penalties for children under 18 in cases of murder and aggravated injury are increased. Accordingly, for children between the ages of 15-18, sentence reductions will not be applied for intentional murder and aggravated injury crimes, and life imprisonment may be imposed at the judge's discretion. If the same conditions occur, sentence reductions may also not be applied to children between the ages of 12-15 at the judge's discretion, and the penalty regime of the upper age group may be applied. Instead of starting the execution of prison sentences for juvenile convicts directly in child education houses, execution will begin in closed juvenile penal institutions, and upon determination of good conduct, they will be transferred to education houses.
WHAT ARE THE ENVISIONED CHANGES?
With the regulation made in the law, except for intentional homicide crimes, crimes against sexual integrity, crimes of manufacturing and trafficking drugs or stimulants, and crimes of forming an organization for the purpose of committing crimes under the Turkish Penal Code, 1 day spent in the penal institution by the convict until they turn 15 will be considered as 2 days in the calculation of the conditional release period.
For children between the ages of 12-15, if the crime requires aggravated life imprisonment, they will be sentenced to 13 to 18 years, and if it requires life imprisonment, they will be sentenced to 10 to 12 years.
The proposal also includes regulations on sanctions against the families of children who commit intentional homicide and injury crimes. Accordingly, in the event of a violation of an obligation arising from family law, the penalty given to parents will be increased up to two times.
A person who causes a firearm to be obtained by a child by failing to store it with the required care and attention will be punished with 1 to 3 years in prison, provided that the act does not constitute another crime requiring a heavier penalty.
The phrase "pushed into crime" in the Child Protection Law will be changed to "in the judicial process," and if a public lawsuit is filed against the child, the situation will be reported to the provincial or district directorates of the Ministry of Family and Social Services and the Ministry of National Education to take necessary administrative measures.
