Summary/Abstract: The assessed petition calls for the harmonisation of the definition of a close relative in various statutes. According to the petitioner, this would prevent serious legal problems. The purpose of harmonising the definition of a close relative in this way would be to include persons who are „in fact” close to each other and to enable them to exercise certain rights. According to the author of the opinion, granting the petition would require systemic changes and complex conceptual work.
