The other positive effects of this intervention into the legal text are reflected in further decrease of the costs of the system itself, as well as in the stimulation of the attorneys as the only providers of secondary legal aid. 
Daljnji pozitivni učinci ove intervencije u zakonski tekst ogledaju se u daljnjem smanjenju troškova samog sustava kao i stimulaciji odvjetnika kao jedinih pružatelja sekundarne pravne pomoći.
As the funds for proper functioning of the legal aid system are allocated in the state budget, it was necessary to find a better legal solution to ensure proper distribution of the above funds. 
Kako se sredstva za pravilno funkcioniranje sustava pravne pomoći osiguravaju u državnom proračunu bilo je potrebno kvalitetnijim zakonskim rješenjem urediti pravilnu raspodjelu spomenutih sredstava.
The free legal aid system is becoming a comprehensive framework of all forms of legal aid by virtue of systematic inclusion of the institute of exemption from payment of court fees and costs of the proceedings which are indispensable parts of a system which protects the right of access to court. 
Sustav besplatne pravne pomoći postaje sveobuhvatni okvir svih oblika pravne pomoći sustavnim uključivanjem instituta oslobođenja od plaćanja sudskih pristojbi i troškova sudskih postupaka koji su neizostavni dijelovi sustava koji štiti pravno na pristup sudu.
In the above areas there were significant legal gaps and legal overlapping of special regulations (Civil Procedure Act and the Court Fees Act) which were contrary to the principles of efficiency and legal security. 
U navedenim područjima postojale su značajne pravne praznine i zakonska preklapanja posebnih propisa (Zakon o parničnom postupku i Zakon o sudskim pristojbama), koja su bila protivna načelima učinkovitosti i pravne sigurnosti.
Now, the actions of the authorities, courts, beneficiaries and other entities involved are clearly and precisely prescribed, and the advantage given to the application of the Free Legal Aid Act before the other special regulations in view of the issues related to these fields is also clearly prescribed. 
Sada je jasno i precizno propisano postupanje nadležnih tijela, sudova, korisnika i drugih uključenih osoba te je jasno propisana prednost koju Zakon o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći ima u primjeni pred drugim posebnim propisima u pitanima vezanim za ova područja.
(Official Gazette 
("Narodne novine", broj:
Judges, as the most qualified officials of the judiciary system, are relieved of making the decision on exemption from payment of court fees and exemption from payment of the costs of proceedings, and thus they are relieved of the burden of unnecessary non-judicial work. 
Suce kao najkvalificiranije djelatnike u pravosudnom sustavu se rasterećuje odlučivanja o oslobođenju od plaćanja sudskih pristojbi te oslobođenja od plaćanja troškova postupka budući da ih se na taj način rasterećuje od nepotrebnih nesudskih poslova.
The efficiency of the judiciary is thus further improved. 
Time se daje daljnji doprinos podizanju učinkovitosti pravosuđa.
Additionally, the following bylaws were also adopted: 
Također, doneseni su i podzakonski propisi:

The Republic of Croatia recognized that need and proceeded to regulate the issue through the adoption of the Free Legal Aid Act. 
Republika Hrvatska prepoznala je tu potrebu, pristupivši uređenju te problematike upravo kroz donošenje Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći.
Such legal mechanism makes it possible to control the work and the efficiency of the central bodies of the state administration in applying the regulations, and it also provides the Croatian Parliament insight into the spending of the funds allocated for that purpose in the state budget, through the indicators which are an integral part of this Report. 
Takav zakonski mehanizam osigurava kontrolu rada i učinkovitosti središnjih tijela državne uprave u primjeni propisa, no također, omogućuje Hrvatskom Saboru uvid i u utrošak sredstva osiguranih za tu svrhu u Državnom proračunu, kroz pokazatelje koji čine sastavni dio ovog Izvješća.
It is certain that the legal system of the Republic of Croatia is well acquainted with the institute of free legal aid. 
Nesumnjivo je da institut besplatne pravne pomoći nije nepoznanica u pravnom sustavu Republike Hrvatske.
Namely, this was a partially regulated system which was realized through the implementation of several regulations. Therefore, the need emerged for upgrading the free legal aid system so that a more comprehensive, and thus a more efficient upgrade of the existing legal aid system regulates and enables the most needy (who are most often also the economically and socially most disadvantaged) efficient access, not only to court, but also to the other bodies who are managing their rights and obligations. 
Naime, radilo se o parcijalno uređenom sustavu koji se realizirao kroz primjenu više propisa, stoga se pokazala potreba za dogradnjom sustava besplatne pravne pomoći, tako da se upravo cjelovitijom, a samim time i djelotvornijom dogradnjom postojećeg sustava pravne pomoći regulira i omogući najpotrebitijim, ujedno najčešće ekonomsko i socijalno najugroženijim grupama građana učinkovit pristup, ne samo sudovima već i ostalim tijelima koja rješavaju o njihovim pravima i obvezama.
In that way, for the purpose of creating equal conditions of access to justice, all citizens are put in equal positions in view of the situations when they need any kind of legal aid for composing files to be submitted to authorities, representation in legal and administrative matters, but also in the cases when they require legal aid for conciliation or alternative resolutions of disputes. 
Time se, u svrhu stvaranja jednakih uvjeta pristupa pravosuđu, sve građane stavlja u ravnopravan položaj u odnosu na situacije kad im je potrebna bilo kakva pravna pomoć prilikom sastavljanja podnesaka pred nadležnim tijelima, zastupanju u sudskim i upravnim stvarima, ali i u slučajevima kada je pravna pomoć potrebna prilikom mirenja ili alternativnog načina rješavanja nastalog spora.
Since the matter at hand is an Act which, among other, has also been adopted within the framework of the negotiation process of the Republic of Croatia for full membership in the European Union, acquis communautaire of the European Union was taken into consideration, as well as international legal standards and recommendations stated in European Council documents and in international agreements which the Republic of Croatia is party to, and the judicial practice of the European Court of Human Rights. 
Obzirom da se radi o Zakonu koji je između ostaloga usvojen i u okviru procesa pregovora Republike Hrvatske za punopravno članstvo u Europskoj Uniji, prilikom njegove izrade, vodilo se računa o pravnoj stečevini Europske Unije, o međunarodnopravnim standardima i preporukama sadržanim u dokumentima Vijeća Europe, te u međunarodnim ugovorima kojih je Republika Hrvatska stranka kao i sudskoj praksi Europskog suda za ljudska prava.
The establishment of a free legal aid system is undoubtedly an important step in the improvement of the legal system of the Republic of Croatia because it not only facilitates the provision of legal aid in all civil proceedings, but it also takes it one step further and, following the latest practice of the European Court of Human Rights, ensures provision of legal aid in administrative proceedings and administrative disputes, as well. 
Uspostava sustava besplatne pravne pomoći, nesumnjivo predstavlja značajan korak u unapređenju pravnog sustava Republike Hrvatske, jer osim što omogućuje pružanje pravne pomoći u svim građanskim postupcima, ide i stepenicu više, te slijedeći noviju praksu Europskog suda za ljudska prava, osigurava i pružanje pravne pomoći u upravnim postupcima i upravnom sporu.
Because the recommendations from the documents of the Council of Europe have been followed, the circle of providers has been widened so that legal aid is now not only provided by attorneys but also by NGOs, unions and law clinics. 
Slijedeći preporuke dokumenata Vijeća Europe, proširen je krug pružatelja tako da osim odvjetnika, pravnu pomoć pružaju i nevladine organizacije, sindikati i pravne klinike.
62/08 and 81/11), as the main actor in the establishment of the legal aid system, the Ministry of Justice is also responsible for the legality of the implementation of the Free Legal Aid Act, as well as for continuous supervision over the implementation; therefore, it is obligated to submit, each year, to the Government of the Republic of Croatia a Report on the Exercise of the Right to Legal Aid and the Funds Spent in the Previous Year. 
62/08 i 81/11), Ministarstvo pravosuđa kao središnji nositelj uspostave sustava pravne pomoći, odgovorno je i za zakonitost provedbe Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći, kao i za kontinuirani nadzor nad provedbom, te je stoga u obvezi svake godine Vladi Republike Hrvatske podnijeti Izvješće o ostvarivanju prava na pravnu pomoć i utrošku sredstava za prethodnu godinu.
Moreover, the implementation activities of the Ministry of Justice will be indicated, together with further plans and activities in view of strengthening the legal aid system in the Republic of Croatia as an instrument of protection of the right of access to court and as a mechanism which contributes to increased efficiency of the judiciary as a whole. 
Također, ukazati će se na provedene aktivnosti Ministarstva pravosuđa, kao i na daljnje planove i aktivnosti u smjeru jačanja sustava pravne pomoći u Republici Hrvatskoj kao instrumenta zaštite prava na pristup sudu i mehanizma koji doprinosi većoj učinkovitosti pravosuđa u cjelini.
Although access to court in certain cases may be limited, e.g. due to the statute of limitations or by an application in civil matters for advance payment of the costs of the proceedings or by limited capacity of parties, however, the limitations may not be such that they materially harm the right of access to court. 
Premda pristup sudu u pojedinim slučajevima može biti ograničen, npr. nastupom zastare ili zahtjevom u građanskima stvarima za predujmljivanjem troškova postupka ili ograničenjem stranačke sposobnosti, no ograničenja ne smiju biti takve naravi da bitno naštete pravu na pristup sudu.
In certain circumstances, professional legal aid is necessary in order to provide a person the right of access to court, especially in those cases which concern persons of inadequate financial means for ensuring professional aid. In such cases, the state, as the guarantor of services, must provide legal aid, whether as a case of full exemption from paying the costs of the proceedings or a case of partial participation in the costs by the service user. 
U određenim je okolnostima nužna stručna pravna pomoć kako bi se pojedincu osiguralo uživanje prava na pristup sudu, posebno u onim slučajevima kada je riječ o osobama koje nemaju dovoljno financijskih sredstava za osiguranje profesionalne pomoći, te je u takvim situacijama nužno osiguranje pravne pomoći od strane države kao granata usluge, bilo da se radi o potpunom oslobođenju od plaćanja troškova postupka ili uz djelomično participiranje u trošku od strane korisnika usluge.
The Court of Human Rights especially expressed that position in the decision of the case of Airey v. Ireland (1979). 
Posebno je Sud za ljudska prava taj stav izrazio u odluci Airey protiv Irske (1979.g.).
The right of access to court may, in justified cases, be limited, in view of which each country may exert the margin of appreciation; each country is entitled to determine the conditions for realizing free legal aid and the manner in which the money from the state budget is used insofar as long as the rights guaranteed by the European Convention are not limited or violated. 
Pravo na pristup sudu se u opravdanim slučajevima može ograničiti, u čemu svaka država uživa određenu slobodu procjene (margin of appreciation); svaka država ima pravo odrediti uvjete za ostvarivanje besplatne pravne pomoći i način na koji se koristi novac iz državnog proračuna dok se ne ograničavaju ili krše Europskom konvencijom zajamčena prava.
Furthermore, it was necessary to finally meet the international legal standards and achieve harmonization with the relevant provisions of the Croatian Constitution on the equality of all people before the court and other bodies, the right to a fair trial and the rule of law, and to point out the importance of the role of the state to support and intervene in each case when necessary for the purpose of protection of the basic human rights, in this case, ensuring the right of access to court and other bodies which decide on the citizens' rights and obligations. 
Nadalje, bilo je potrebno konačno zadovoljiti međunarodno pravne standarde i postići usklađenje sa relevantnim odredbama Ustava Republike Hrvatske o jednakosti svih pred sudom i drugim tijelima, pravu na pravično suđenje i vladavini prava, te istaknuti važnost uloge države da podrži i intervenira uvijek kada je to potrebno radi zaštite temeljnih ljudskih prava, u ovom slučaju osiguranja prava na pristup sudu i drugim tijelima koja odlučuju o pravima i obvezama građana.
Thus, despite the existence of certain forms of legal aid regulated by special regulations (the Civil Procedure Act, the Attorneys Act, the Court Fees Act, etc.), the adoption of the Free Legal Aid Act (Official Gazette 
Tako je, unatoč postojanju nekih oblika pravne pomoći uređenih posebnim propisima (Zakon o parničnom postupku, Zakon o odvjetništvu, Zakon o sudskim pristojbama, etc.), usvajanjem Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći (Narodne novine, broj:
62/08) nevertheless resulted in the integration and definition of the notion of free legal aid as an instrument of protection of the right of access to court to everybody under the same conditions and in the stressing of the importance of the role of the state as the guarantor of the provision of that right. 
62/08), ipak došlo objedinjavanja i utvrđivanja pojma besplatne pravne pomoći kao instrumenta zaštite pristupa sudu svima pod jednakim uvjetima te isticanja važnosti uloge države kao garanta osiguranja tog prava.
Moreover, that first Act triggered a certain harmonization of the Croatian legal system in that field with the requirements of the internationally legally accepted standards, especially in the part concerning the determination of objective criteria which must exist on the part of the person seeking approval of legal aid, in order to be approved that same right, then concerning the expansion of the circle of legal aid beneficiaries onto foreign citizens under certain conditions, as well as the expansion of the circle of providers of certain forms of aid in accordance with the conditions prescribed by the Act. 
Također, je tim prvim Zakonom, došlo do određene harmonizacije hrvatskog pravnog sustava na tom polju sa zahtjevima međunarodno pravno priznatih standarda, posebno u dijelu koji se odnosi na određivanje objektivnih kriterija koji moraju postojati na strani osobe koja traži odobravanje pravne pomoći, kako bi se isto pravo odobrilo, zatim u odnosu na proširenje kruga korisnika pravne pomoći i na strane državljane pod određenim uvjetima kao i na proširenje kruga pružatelja pojedinih oblika pomoći u skladu s uvjetima propisanim Zakonom.
Furthermore, the Free legal Aid Act contains detailed provisions which regulate the very process of applying and deciding on the citizens' requests for approving legal aid, as well as the bodies authorized for the adoption of that decision, that is, the body authorized for deciding on the appeal and on the claim of a person who believes that a decision of an authority deprived him illegally of that right. Finally, the standard form is prescribed of the application by which the process of approval of legal aid is initiated, and this form follows, to a great extent, the form prescribed by Commission Decision 2004/844/EC of 9 November 2004 establishing a form for legal aid applications under Council Directive 2003/8/EC to improve access to justice in cross-border disputes by establishing minimum common rules and which Directive is completely embedded in the text of the Act. 
Nadalje, Zakon o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći sadrži detaljne odredbe kojima se uređuje sam postupak podnošenja i odlučivanja o zahtjevu građana za odobravanje korištenja pravne pomoći, kao i tijela ovlaštena donošenje te odluke, odnosno tijelo nadležno za odlučivanje o žalbi, te tužbi osobe koja smatra da je odlukom nadležnog tijela to pravo nezakonito uskraćeno i u konačnici propisan je standardni obrazac zahtjeva kojim se postupak odobravanja pravne pomoći pokreće, a koji u velikoj mjeri slijedi obrazac propisan Odlukom Komisije 2004/844/EZ od 9. studenog 2004, o utvrđivanju oblika zahtjeva za pravnu pomoć prema Direktivi 2003/8/EZ o poboljšanju pristupa sudu u prekograničnim sporovima uspostavom minimalnih zajedničkih pravila, a koja Direktiva je u cijelosti ugrađena i u zakonski tekst.
The European Court concluded that the right of access to court was violated because, in the light of the complexity of the process itself before the Supreme Court, the possibility that an uneducated party representing herself before the court might win the proceedings is only theoretical. 
Europski sud je zaključio da postoji povreda prava na pristup sudu jer u svijetlu složenosti samog postupka pred Višim sudom, mogućnost uspjeha u sporu neobrazovane stranke koja se sama zastupa pred tim sudom samo je teoretske naravi.
provisions which prescribe property-based criteria for approving legal aid (Article 8) 
odredbe kojima su propisani imovinski kriteriji za odobravanje korištenja pravne pomoći ( članak 8.)
provisions which foresee the possibility of an attorney refusing to provide legal aid to a beneficiary under the conditions prescribed by the Attorneys Act, that is, by the Code of Attorney Ethics and the Statute of the Bar Association (Article 10, paragraph 2) 
odredbe kojom se predviđa mogućnost da odvjetnik odbije pružiti pravnu pomoć korisniku po uvjetima propisanim Zakonom o odvjetništvu, odnosno Kodeksom odvjetničke etike i Statutom Komore (članak 10. stavak 2.)
Following the legal interpretation of the Constitutional Court stated in the exposition of the above stated Decision, the Ministry of Justice started a comprehensive analysis of the existing Free Legal Aid Act and its effects as a whole, using exactly the opinion of the Constitutional Court in this matter as the basis for amending those provisions of the Act which have shown to be, independently of the Court's evaluation, defective, or certain legal solutions turned out to be incomplete in practice. 
Ministarstvo pravosuđa slijedeći pravno shvaćanje Ustavnog suda izraženo u obrazloženju ranije spomenute Odluke, pristupilo je opsežnoj analizi postojećeg Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći, te njegovih učinaka u cijelosti, koristeći upravo mišljenje Ustavnog suda o ovoj materiji kao temelj za izmjenu i onih odredbi Zakona koje su se neovisno od ocjene Suda pokazale manjkavim ili su se pojedina zakonska rješenja u praksi pokazala nedorečenima.
The Act on the Amendments to the Free Legal Aid Act represents an important step towards further improvement of the legal aid system in the Republic of Croatia in the sense of bringing the system closer to the end user through a clearer and more contemporary legal solution, the most important of which will be described in this part. 
Zakon o izmjenama i dopunama Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći predstavlja značajan korak k daljnjem unapređenju sustava pravne pomoći u Republici Hrvatskoj u smislu približavanja sustava krajnjem korisniku kroz jasnija i suvremenija zakonska rješenja, od kojih ćemo u ovom dijelu opisati ona najznačajnija.
of the Free legal Aid Act has created a more clearly defined framework for approving legal aid through regulation of primary and secondary legal aid so as to explicitly state the procedures in which these types of legal aid may be approved and an exception is foreseen whose goal is to enable the provision of legal aid in all civil judiciary proceedings when there are particular life circumstances on the part of the applicant which require the state's intervention. 
Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći stvoren je jasnije definiran okvir za odobravanje pravne pomoći kroz uređenje primarne i sekundarne pravne pomoći na način da su taksativno navedeni postupci u kojima se ove vrste pravne pomoći mogu odobriti i predviđena je iznimka koja za cilj omogućavanje pružanja pravne pomoći u svim sudskim građanskim postupcima kada postoje naročite konkretne životne okolnosti na strani podnositelja zahtjeva koje iziskuju intervenciju države.
The requirements of legal security and the rule of law, as the highest constitutional principle, put focus on thorough re-examination of the provisions which regulate attorney obligation to provide legal aid on one side, but also the possibility to refuse to provide legal aid, on the other side. 
Zahtjevi pravne sigurnosti i vladavine prava, kao najvišeg ustavnog načela, usmjerili su na temeljito preispitivanje odredaba kojima je uređena dužnost odvjetnika da pruži pravnu pomoć s jedne strane, ali i mogućnost odbiti pružanje pravne pomoći s druge strane.
Namely, the synthetic distribution system which used to determine the distribution of those funds towards the providers in advance and at a certain percent, thus creating a wrong image of the created financing model, was abandoned. 
Naime, napušten je sustav sintetske podjele koja je unaprijed određivala podjelu tih sredstva u postotku prema pružateljima stvarajući tako pogrešnu predodžbu o stvorenom modelu financiranja.
The responsibility of the state, as the service guarantor, is not only to ensure enough funds in the state budget for the functioning of the free legal aid system but also to control their spending which must be transparent, flexible, as well as purposeful and allocated according to needs, respecting thereat the possibilities of the state budget. 
Odgovornost je države, kao garanta usluge ne samo da osigura dovoljno sredstava u državnom proračunu za funkcioniranje sustava besplatne pravne pomoći, već da kontrolira i prati njihov utrošak koji mora biti transparentan, fleksibilan, ali namjenski i raspoređen po potrebama, poštujući pri tom i mogućnosti Državnog proračuna.
Moreover, throughout the entire legal text, terminological and procedural harmonization was implemented of the Free Legal Aid Act with the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act. 
Također je kroz cijeli zakonski tekst provedeno je terminološko i postupovno usklađenje Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći s odredbama Zakona o općem upravnom postupku.
The Amendments to the Free Legal Aid Act also follow the strategical guidelines determined by the Judiciary Reform Strategy for the period of 2011 
Novelom Zakona o besplatnoj pravnoj pomoći se također slijede strateške smjernice određene Strategijom reforme pravosuđa za razdoblje 2011.
