The Business Constitution is a package of 5 acts that comes into force on 30 April 2018 and at the same time repeals the Act from 2004 on the freedom of business activity. Its aim is to reform and simplify the regulations on conducting business. The most important of the acts is the Law of entrepreneurs, which will determine the most important rights of the entrepreneur and the rules of conducting business. Although the amendment covers a great part of economic law, most of the existing regulations remain in force, only their transfer from derogated to newly introduced legal acts has taken place.

It is already a noticeable part of our everyday life, which makes it clear that in the future biometric security will be an important part of our daily lives.
