Germany is ready to help Azerbaijan to the implementation of the provisions of the Code is not working while urban planning and landscaping, which entered into force on 1 January this year. Azerbaijani parliament, with the participation of the German side, discussed forms of support for local initiatives.

According to the deputy chief of the Department of Economics and the military legislation parliamentary apparatus Sayad Kerimov, the document does not work today because the targets for the future. But he did not explain what progress can be expected in today's bureaucratic management model. Most likely , the code will work after all the land in the center of the year will go into the hands of the oligarchs and the old neighborhoods will be demolished one of them.

According to the Chairman of the Supreme Administrative Court of the German state of Baden -Wuerttemberg Volker Ellenberg, the use of the modernized system of urban planning in the framework of the implementation of the Code of Urban Planning of Azerbaijan will face certain difficulties. The difference is in the number of legal requirements. The Code of Germany, more than 250 articles in the Azerbaijani counterpart - a total of 40 or more.
