The activity of the parliament

The parliament, responding to technological and communication changes, regulated the operation of the post and telecommunications in 1964. The uniform regulation of building permits, planning and construction served to transform the image of cities. In order to meet the water needs of industry and agriculture, water management was comprehensively regulated. The third five-year plan was adopted, based on the economic goals declared at the 9th Congress of the Hungarian Socialist Workers' Party in 1966 and the right to vote was re-established, replacing list voting with voting in single-member districts.
