Origin
2022 - First part-session
In the draft resolution, after paragraph 9, insert the following paragraph:

"It draws attention in particular to the previous opinion of the Venice Commission of July 2021 on Hungarian constitutional amendments, where the commission already warned against the danger of "further strengthen[ing] an attitude according to which non-heterosexual lifestyles are seen as inferior and fuel a hostile and stigmatising atmosphere against LGBTQI people", and to the statement in the new opinion according to which "the amendments stigmatise LGBTI persons and discriminate against them on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression"."
