TFL Vsebine / Pravni letopis

Nomotehnični izzivi svoje prave razsežnosti pokažejo šele, ko se pripravljavci predpisov lotijo prelivanja želene vsebine v obliko pravnih pravil. To opravilo nedvomno zahteva, da so vanj vključeni pravno-teoretični razmisleki, v okviru katerih je morda že bila obravnavana konkretna situacija, v kateri se je znašel pripravljavec predpisa, ali pa celo ponujena primerna (nomotehnična) rešitev. Toda kadar slednje (še) ni, hkrati pa tudi ne vsaj kakšnega realnega (v predpisu udejanjenega) primera poskusa premostitve določene pravne ali nomotehnične dileme, na katerega bi se bilo mogoče nasloniti, se pripravljavec predpisa znajde v še toliko bolj zapletenem položaju, saj njegov izziv poleg praktično-konkretnih vidikov dobi še teoretično-abstraktno razsežnost. Pripravljavec predpisa je pri pripravi Predloga zakona o objavljanju v Uradnem listu Republike Slovenije naletel na številna pravna in nomotehnična vprašanja. Gre namreč za zakonsko materijo, ki po eni strani konkretizira ustavni institut objavljanja predpisov v uradnem listu in mora zato upoštevati ustavnopravna načela in ustavnosodno prakso, po drugi strani pa poskuša slediti in pustiti prosto pot družbenemu razvoju, prežetemu z digitalnimi okolji in orodji, ki imajo vedno bolj pomembno vlogo tudi v pravu.

The challenges related to legislative drafting become apparent when drafters start incorporating the desired content into the form of legal rules. That task undoubtedly requires the inclusion of legal and theoretical considerations, in the context of which the specific situation under the drafter’s consideration might already have been addressed or an appropriate (legislative drafting) approach might even have been advised. However, when the latter does not (yet) exist, and where there is no real example in the existing legislation to rely on, the drafter finds themself in an even more complicated situation when trying to resolve a certain dilemma, as the challenge broadens from the practical aspects of the case to theoreticalabstract dimensions. During the preparation of the Draft Act on Publication in the Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia (draft Act), the drafters encountered several legal and drafting-related issues. The draft Act entails content that, on the one hand, constitutes the concretisation of the constitutional provision concerning the publication of laws and regulations in the Official Gazette and must therefore take into account constitutional principles and jurisprudence, but on the other hand, it also tries to reflect and enable the evolution of social realities driven by digital environments, which play an increasingly important role in the legal domain as well.
