NATIONAL JUDICIAL COUNCIL BACKS SENYEI FOR OBH CHIEF

 

The National Judicial Council (OBT) supports the election of György Barna Senyei as the next head of the National Office of the Judiciary (OBH), OBT spokesman Viktor Vadász said. The council made its decision after Senyei’s hearing before the body on Wednesday, Vadász told a press conference. At the hearing, Senyei assured the council of his intention to put relations between the OBH and the OBT on a new footing and that he would strive for cooperation, Vadász said. Senyei plans to attend the council’s meetings and wants to establish “peace and order” in Hungary’s judicial system, he added.
