Announcement of the Office of the Constitutional Court


Re: A legal provision is found by the Constitutional Court to be contrary to or inconsistent with the Constitution[1]





Whereas the Constitutional Court, by its Decision No. 15/2555 dated 13 June 2012, held that the Court of Justice Judicial Service Act, BE 2543 (2000), section 26 (10), only in the part stating "having physical or mental condition inappropriate for judicial service", is contrary to or inconsistent with the Constitution of the Kingdom of Thailand, Buddhist Era 2550 (2007), section 30, paragraph 3, which prescribes: "Forbidden shall be unfair discrimination against persons on grounds of their disabilities";

And whereas the part of the Court of Justice Judicial Service Act, BE 2543 (2000), section 26 (10), which states "having physical or mental condition inappropriate for judicial service", thus became defunct by operation of the Constitution, section 6;

These matters are hereby announced for public acknowledgment.



Issued this 15th Day of June, Buddhist Era 2555 (2012).


Chaowana Traimat,

Secretary General of the Office of the Court of Justice.
