New position paper “Comment on the Draft Proposal on the Lobbying Act”

AmCham has always advocated for transparent and public communication with all stakeholders, respecting the highest business and ethical standards and strictly respecting all laws and regulations. The AmCham’s Code of Business Conduct speaks in favor of this and must be observed by all AmCham members. Relationships of AmCham members with Government institutions, officials and employees should adhere to the highest legal and ethical standards of anti-corruption and transparency.

Although the Croatian Government’s intention to bring greater transparency in public and political life is positive, given the large number of ambiguities and unclarities that will lead to different interpretations, AmCham’s opinion is that the current Draft Proposal of the Lobbying Act will not lead to the desired result stated in the introductory part of the Draft Proposal of the Act.
