Judicial Yuan withdraw the relevant bill for law amendments as legislators opposed against the non-gratuitous system of administrative proceedings

    An article contained in the “Bill for amendments to the Code of Administrative Proceedings” states that non-gratuitous system shall be adopted in administrative proceedings. However, the Judiciary Committee of the Legislative Yuan reserved the aforesaid article during examination of the bill the other day. After its study, the Judicial Yuan decided to withdraw the article concerning the non-gratuitous system to prevent affecting the legislative progress of the bill. In the future, there will be no need for the public to pay court costs for initiating an administrative proceeding.
