Description
Summary:We can conclude that a new Law on Responsibility of Legal Entities for Crimes defines in an adequate manner the notions of legal entity and responsible person as those responsible for crimes. Maybe it could have been proceeded with a good practice of implementation of article 6 paragraph 3 of the Law on Commercial Crimes, so as the new Law could have prescribed that responsible person within state organ, organs of autonomous province and within units of local self-government may be held responsible for certain crimes. In addition to this, it was also possible, as it has been in article 2 paragraph 2 of the Law on Responsibility of Legal Entitis for Crimes in Slovenia, that for those legal entities that do not fall within the notion of the Republic and local self-government as such, that the Law prescribs that they are subject to criminal responsibility for certain crimes.
