The state of legal system in Slovakia is subject of long-term criticism, not only by lawyers, but also generally by public, by the addressees of the law. They feel that laws are created in a process that is distant and inaccessible for them. Role of the State is to strengthen citizen ś confidence in law, open the legislative process and make it transparent. In 2015, two laws were adopted relating to the preparation and drafting of laws and parliamentary discussion about proposed laws. The present paper deals with the amendment to the rules of procedure of the Parliament in 2015. It takes note of the changes relating to the publication of the proposed laws and amendments. The paper understands it as a deepening of the Principles of Sovereignty of the People in the activity of the Parliament. The second area is the analysis of Rule prohibiting Amendments that bear no connection with the proposed law, which the paper assesses as a major benefit of the Amendment to the Rules of Procedure of Parliament in 2015.
