  • E-consultation as a way of communicating with the public in adopting regulations in The Republic of Croatia
    Klepac Mustać, Irena
    The concept of „smart legislation“ includes the need to consult the wider public before adopting regulations. The consultation process itself with the interested public is carried out in the Republic ... of Croatia by the central body of the state administration through the esavjetovanja.gov.hr portal (e-Savjetovanja). In order for the future law to be of the highest quality, it is necessary to achieve the highest possible quality of communication and involve the media in order to inform about the possibility of participating in the process of law making. The purpose of this article is to provide answers to the following questions: does conducting e- consultation through the esavjetovanja.gov.hr website represent the media that plays the highest quality role in the process of consulting the public; what is the role of the media in that process and to what extent? The research will use the method of analyzing existing sources of relevant literature and available data and conducting a survey with which hypotheses will be challenged or confirmed: (whether) the e-consultation platform via certain websites represents an adequate way of collecting information about legislative proposals and; (whether) all relevant media are sufficiently and evenly involved in the consultation process. The results show that the esavjetovanja.gov.hr portal is the dominant area in which e-consultation was carried out in the Republic of Croatia during 2021, and that 39.14 % of the citizens of the Republic of Croatia are not aware that they have the opportunity to participate in consultation during law making, while 60.89 % of them are not aware of the existence of the web portal esavjetovanja.gov.hr.
