| Description | The new legislation on parental responsibility enshrined in the Civil Code based on the Principles of European Family Law concerning Parental Responsibility created by the Commission on European Family Law (CEFL) explicitly extends the content of parental responsibility - among others - of the health of the child and the child protection and enshrines not common medical and similar interventions into the illustrative list of important matters which require the consent of the both parents of the minor child. This area of legal regulation of parental responsibility, however, is not entirely without interpretation and application problems. Therefore, this article is dedicated to the many questions and answers, especially in relation to possible collisions. Its aim is to take the issue in its entirety, ie. in connection with the new legislation of the protection of personality in the Civil Code and in relation to specific laws, especially on medical services, at least at the level of basic overview, and finally in the lights of the rights of the child, including the right to health. |
