The rule of law is under pressure, the laws are too complicated and there is a crisis of confidence. How can we solve this? And who should look in the mirror? A unique moment: never before have three Colleges of State sat together at Buitenhof. Arno Visser (General Audit Office), Reinier van Zutphen (National Ombudsman) and Thom de Graaf (Council of State) are joining us. With good reason: the rule of law is fraying, laws are unnecessarily complicated and citizens have lost confidence in the government. How can it be improved? And what should happen next? The High Colleges of State are the First Chamber, the Second Chamber, the Council of State, the General Audit Office, the National Ombudsman and the Chancellery of the Dutch Orders. Their task is to monitor and advise the central government. Their independence and autonomy are laid down in the constitution. ➡ Subscribe to not miss anything and join the conversation: http://bit.ly/buitenhof-abonneren ➡ Watch another video about politics: http://bit.ly/buitenhofyt-politiek This video is from the broadcast of Buitenhof on April 25, 2021 http://bit.ly/buitenhof-25-april-2021 About Buitenhof: Buitenhof discusses politics and current affairs in in-depth interviews, debates or discussions.
