Section 11 of the Special Law of 8 August 1980 conferred on the regional legislature criminal competence which, essentially, can be exercised only by reference to the disruption of public order. By providing that a breach of a particular provision which it adopts constitutes a criminal offence, the regional legislature establishes that that breach disrupts public order. That competence also allows it to assess and determine the period during which a penalty should be imposed for such a breach and, accordingly, the time from which the offence should no longer be prosecuted.
Criminal offence, determination, competence of region / Statute of limitation, change by region.

The fact that a Member of Parliament who has now become a judge at the Court of Arbitration took part in the debate and vote of a norm forming the subject-matter of a preliminary question does not constitute a ground for challenging that judge either under the Institutional Law on the Court of Arbitration or under Article 6 ECHR, or in application of the general principles of law.
