    The National Assembly has reopened the debate on a bill to create a special legal regime guaranteeing the right of association, providing more legal security for CSOs. The initiative establishes that it is not necessary to be a legal entity to create a company, and also eliminates the distinction between a foundation and a corporation, adopting the definition of a “non-profit organization” and proposing that foreign organizations have the same rights as national ones. During its treatment in committee, about 20 entities made observations and contributions to the bill.
