This year’s Charity Good Will Concert

Law firm Kocián Šolc Balaštík is again organizing its traditional Charity Concert for the Good Will Committee of the Olga Havel Foundation. The now sixteenth annual concert will be held on 21 November 2010 from 7 p.m. in the Church of St. Simon and St. Jude, Old Town Prague.

The performers at this year’s Charity Concert will be the prominent Czech pianist Ivan Moravec, considered to be one of the greatest pianists of the twentieth century, the violist Roman Patočka and the mixed choir Carmina Bohemica.

All funds raised in connection with this year’s Charity Concert will be used to support the Good Will Committee’s Senior program, whose main objective is the preservation of dignity for, and provision of necessary care to, senior citizens. The issue of assistance to senior citizens remains an important indicator of the moral and ethical maturity of every society. Unfortunately assistance in this area is often neglected or ignored.

KSB has been organizing Charity Concerts for the Good Will Committee of the Olga Havel Foundation since 1995 based on the significant support of its clients, friends, colleagues and business partners. Helena Navrátilová, head of KSB’s tax team, talks about the founding and history of KSB’s Charity Concerts and on the need to provide assistance in the current issue of the magazine Dobré zprávy (downloaded here – in Czech only).

If you wish to attend this year’s Charity Concert and support the Senior program of the Good Will Committee of the Olga Havel Foundation, please contact Mr. Josef Kurčina at jkurcina@ksb.cz.

Suburbanization Trends and Sustainable Commuting: Will the Construction Act Amendment Change the Landscape?

The discussion surrounding the current proposal to amend the Construction Act (Parliamentary Print 67) has moved to the committee stage in the Chamber of Deputies following its first reading. The primary declared objective is the acceleration of construction, particularly regarding residential buildings. The shortage of affordable housing remains a pressing issue in major cities, both in the Czech Republic and abroad, giving rise to the pervasive trend of suburbanization. This raises the question: does the proposed amendment truly have the ambition to reverse this trend, and will an increase in housing construction alone suffice?
