"Mr President, the prohibition of
effect has been a fundamental principle in Europe ever since Roman law. Over the past one and a half years the Hungarian government has violated this principle on several occasions. Last year, it retroactively modified citizens’ retirement savings contracts. Last week, it abolished early retirement with retroactive effect, which had an impact on more than 300 000 people, including miners, soldiers and law enforcement officers.
Now it is once again about to enact a law with retroactive effect, this time on the transitional provisions of the Constitution that was adopted last year under criticism from the European Parliament. In doing so it now intends to hold the Hungarian Socialist Party responsible for the crimes of the past regime retroactively. In 2009, the European Parliament pronounced that no parliament was allowed to make laws about the past. This incident must not be tolerated by either the European Parliament or the European Commission, or Commissioner for Fundamental Rights Viviane Reding. The European Union must take action."@en1
