közjegyzket

közjegyzket is a specific type of official notice used within the Hungarian administrative legal system. The term comes from the Hungarian words köz (public) and jegyz ((to record)). A közjegyzket typically outlines a formal declaration or public comment that a governmental body or agency intends to issue. Its purpose is both to inform stakeholders of impending actions and to provide an opportunity for public feedback before the final decision is adopted. The notice is usually published in the official journal (magyarországi hatósági napló) or on the relevant agency’s website, ensuring broad accessibility.

In practice, a közjegyzket follows a standardized format. It includes the issuing authority’s name, the subject matter, the legal basis, a brief description of the proposed measure, and a timeframe for the public consultation period. Citizens and organizations receiving the notice may submit written comments, objections, or support within the specified window. After the consultation period, the administering body reviews the feedback and either adjusts the proposal, proceeds unchanged, or cancels it, documenting the decision publicly.

The concept is analogous to a “notice of intent” used in many common‑law jurisdictions. By providing a structured avenue for public participation, the közjegyzket system promotes transparency and accountability in administrative decision‑making while ensuring compliance with statutory requirements for public participation.
