Projet de loi portant harmonisation de diverses législations relevant de l'Intérieur avec le Code pénal du 29 février 2024.

This Belgian government bill would harmonise various laws under the responsibility of the Interior ministry with the Criminal Code of 29 February 2024. The aim is to ensure that penalties, terminology and cross-references in these separate laws are consistent with the newly adopted criminal law framework, avoiding conflicts and legal uncertainty. Because the bill concerns technical alignment of existing legislation, its direct effects fall mainly on judges, prosecutors, police and public authorities applying these laws. Citizens are affected indirectly, as the penalties and offence definitions they may face would be updated to match the new Code. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text.
