The regulation is aimed at providing autonomy and powers to cities and regions to tackle the housing crisis in terms of limiting short-term rentals. Across the EU, cities have previously implemented restrictive measures, but they often ended up in courts, with the European Commission even initiating infringement proceedings against certain member states due to these measures by cities. Now it is regulated in such a way that if a city or region clearly demonstrates that it is under so-called housing stress, they have the legal right to implement restrictive measures," said Bosanac in a statement to Hina. #priuštivoStanovanje #stambenaKrizа #kratkoročniNajam (translated)

The Act on Affordable Housing should have responded more strongly to the main problem - the lack of apartments. Instead of binding solutions for faster issuance of permits, more construction, renovation, and mobilizing investments, we unfortunately received a Regulation that introduces the possibility of restricting the purchase or use of another property. It is unacceptable to penalize citizens who have invested their savings in the purchase of another property. The European Charter of Fundamental Rights guarantees all our citizens the right to ownership of lawfully acquired property. Unfortunately, the Act on Affordable Housing calls this fundamental right into question. If we want to resolve the housing crisis, we must enable more construction to happen, faster and easier. Croatian MEP Nikolina Brnjac (EPP/HDZ) pointed out as the most problematic part of the Commission's proposal the possibility of introducing restrictions related to the purchase or use of another property, emphasizing that such a measure "has not been requested, has not been announced, and is not acceptable." #priuštivoStanovanje #stambenaKrizа #kratkoročniNajam (translated)
