According to him, the proposed modifications would provide disabled people with guarantees for the protection of their rights, which are analogous to the guarantees currently provided in the Civil Code regarding the rental of housing for pregnant women and those raising minor children.
As the deputy of Seimas G. Vasiliauskas points out, the non-governmental organizations of the disabled indicate that when entering into residential lease contracts, the municipalities unilaterally establish equal contract conditions for all, although the opportunities for the disabled to take care of their well-being vary according to their level of work ability, disability and income.
According to G. Vasiliauskas, supplementing the Civil Code with new provisions would guarantee the right of disabled people to housing, avoid discrimination on the grounds of disability, and apply the provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
The term “disabled” in a registered project shall be understood to be defined in the Law of Social Integration of the Disabled:
The Legal Department of the Seimas Chancellery draws attention to the fact that the legal regulations proposed in the preliminary draft would apply both to the conclusion of residential lease contracts and to the extension of the term of the contracts concluded, as well as to the fixing of the terms of said contracts.
“From the provisions of the project it is not clear whether the provisions of the law would apply only to the extension and determination of the conditions of residential lease contracts concluded after the entry into force of the law, or also to contracts concluded before the entry into force of the law. It should be considered whether the draft should not be supplemented with a separate article that regulates the application of the law, eliminating the aforementioned ambiguities, “says the conclusion of the Legal Department.
