4 February 2015 - H.E. Poul E. D. Kristensen, Ambasador of the Kingdom of Denmanrk in Croatia visited today the Croatian Constitutional Court where he was received by Professor Dr Jasna Omejec, President of the Court and Dr Teodor Antić, Secretary General. Ambassador Kristensen was very interested to hear about the organisation and workings of the Constitutional Court, and in particular about our competence related to national referendum. He pointed out that Danish Constitution limits the scope of questions that can be decided at the referendum by excluding for example issues related to taxation, government loans, expropriation etc. They also exchanged views on the current situation in the Croatian judiciary, especially about problems of the constitutional judicature, and on the activities the Constitutional Court has been undertaking to increase its efficiency in order to provide the citizens with the timely protection of the rights guaranteed in the Constitution.
