The Immunity of the Members of Parliament and the Dissolution of Political Parties

Abstract

In the political party closure cases, words and deeds of the members of the parliament (MPs) are taken into consideration when deciding whether a political party has become a center for the conduct of unconstitutional activities. Whether they are expressed or performed in the workings of Turkish National Assembly or not is not important because the Constitutional Court holds that all words and deeds of the members of the parliament, within the parliament or outside of it, should be taken into consideration when considering a political party closure case. This means that parliamentary immunity cannot provide protection as far as the political party itself is concerned. In this essay, it shall be assessed whether a political party which has MPs in the Turkish National Assembly and subject to a closure case can be dissolved because of the words and deeds of the MPs belong to that political party
