Wijziging van de Gemeentewet, de Wet openbare lichamen Bonaire, Sint Eustatius en Saba en enkele andere wetten in verband met uitbreiding van de sluitingsbevoegdheid van de burgemeester en de gezaghebber ter handhaving van de openbare orde en om enkele omissies te herstellen

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This motion proposes amending the Municipalities Act and laws governing Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba. The goal is to expand the authority of mayors and commissioners to close buildings or premises to better maintain public order and safety, while correcting existing legal omissions. This change primarily affects local government authorities and owners of premises that may be subject to emergency closure orders by the mayor or commissioner to prevent public disturbances.
