Should convicted offenders automatically lose their driver’s license?

For the first time, petents have to collect more signatures than before if they want their concerns in the chamber to be heard by the MPs. The Change came into force on March 15th. The petition commission tested 22 new petitions on Wednesday and released for signing.

From Austria to Luxembourg – is the community service now?

The Bittschrift number 3621 also requires to withdraw convicted violence. If you have « no control over yourself », you should not be allowed to take part in road traffic, the petent’s reason.
