Statute overview

About this statute

This provision says the law especially protects former combatants who were disabled during the war. This provision defines who counts as a disabled war combatant and gives a competent authority power to confirm that status. A disabled war person has equal rights and obligations before the law and is protected the same as other citizens without discrimination. This article says who counts as a disabled war combatant, how the disability rate is assessed, and that people in categories 3 and 4 get state-funded medical care. An organ is established to monitor and implement this law, and a Prime Minister’s order will set its structure and functions.
