Supreme Court allows annulment of housing allocation decisions made before the new Housing Rent Act came into force.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe Supreme Court resolved a legal question regarding whether administrative bodies could review housing allocation decisions finalized after the new Housing Rent Act of July 2, 1994, entered into force. The applicant argued that a final allocation decision from 1992 should be annulled, while the opposing party contended that the new law's provisions barred such post-implementation challenges. The court ruled that since the annulment procedure was not initiated before the new law, the old statute's time limit did not apply, and the new law's goal of civilizing housing relations could not justify leaving legally flawed administrative decisions in force.
