Environmental impact assessment ultimately remains under the Ministry of Environment. MPs today approved two bills as part of the reform of construction legislation, which also fundamentally change environmental protection. The amendment, which takes the competence to assess environmental impacts from the Ministry of Environment and gives them to the new Construction Authority, was proposed by three MPs from the We Are Family movement \u2013 Jaroslav Karahuta, Milo\u0161 Svr\u010dek and Jozef Luk\u00e1\u010d. With the amendment, the authors of the proposal ultimately left this competence in the hands of the Ministry of Environment. However, the amendment will significantly limit public involvement in decision-making processes.
