Before any law starts to be drafted, the competent ministry submitting the draft proposal should describe the problem it wants to solve by that law in a comprehensible and, if possibly in “non-legal” language. This description shall include the scope and causes of the described problem.
If the state institution preparing the proposal of a law had an obligation - before it starts to write any draft law - to describe in an understandable and “non-legal” language to describe the problem which it intends to resolve by the law, including the scope and causes of the problem, a timely and effective control of whether the prepared draft law is not tailored to certain interest group could exist.
