The bill (Reg. No. 2370) aims at improving civil procedural legislation in regard to defining the order of court proceedings of demands on debt collection for paying housing and communal services, protection of citizens’ rights and interests, guaranteeing the opportunities of their participation in court sessions and providing explanations for demands, etc.
