Summary/Abstract: The following lines represent the second episode of the research related to the categorization of damages caused by a crime. The authors transfer their attention to wider considerations and suggestions de lege ferenda that may have the potential to be beneficial not only for Slovak but also for Czech criminal legislation. The subject of their analysis consists of the analysis of the amendment to the Criminal Code no. 333/2020 Coll., which has laid down a re-doubling of amounts of the individual limits of damages, as well as the analysis of the question whether it is possible to reconsider the link of damage to one of the flexible economic indicators in the conditions of Slovak or Czech Republic. Finally, the authors intend the need for an intertemporal provision, according to that penalties imposed before the effective date of the new Act shall remain unexecuted or shall be proportionately reduced.
