Sports Law Amendments: Referee Protection and Maternity Support for Athletes

The law grants sports referees legal protection similar to that of public officials. It also provides financial support for female athletes who cannot train due to pregnancy or childbirth, including extended scholarship periods. Additionally, it regulates the process of transforming sports associations into national sports federations.
Key points
Sports referees performing specific tasks receive legal protection as public officials.
Female national team members receive sports scholarships during pregnancy and after childbirth, with the period extended in case of the child's hospitalization.
A procedure for transforming sports associations into national sports federations is introduced, requiring ministerial consent, with the registry court deleting the transformed association ex officio.
Local government bodies have 6 months to adjust their resolutions to the new regulations.
