The Standing Committee of the Council of Ministers adopted a bill introducing a housing allowance to the Prison Service. However, the legislative way of the paper so far is rather bumpy and winding. The Ministry of Finance, m.in which – euphemistically speaking – is not very willing to increase the budget burden on the state, had quite a few comments on the solutions prepared by the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Interior and Administration besides had objections to the proposed solutions.
