Existence of a National Youth Law
There is no specific youth law, but its necessity arose in every government cycle during the last 10-15 years. Overall, there have been serious professional and political debates, arguments and counter-arguments about whether Hungary needs a law that summarises and regulates the roles and responsibilities of state and local actors in the youth field. (Youth Policy Review manuscript, 2016) The current government has no plans to introduce a youth law.
