In Nederland werd door premier Rutte de aandacht gevestigd op een ‘anti-homowet’ in Hongarije. De premier was furieus, maar wist niet waarover hij sprak. Frans Groenendijk zocht het tot de bodem uit.

Een verontrustend brede coalitie in Nederland en ‘in Brussel’ is aangeslagen op een Hongaars wetsvoorstel getiteld ‘Tougher action against pedophile offenders and to amend certain laws to protect children‘. Door die coalitie wordt die wet zelfs aangeduid als anti-homo-wet.

Het opvoeren van de boosheid over wet 16365 heeft potentie om de EU op te blazen: de demissionaire premier en de demissionaire minister van buitenlandse zaken van Nederland zinspelen op het vertrek van Hongarije uit de EU, terwijl Hongarije steun krijgt van andere EU-lidstaten.

Het verschil tussen hoe de regering van Hongarije spreekt over het wetsvoorstel en hoe Rutte cs dat doen, zou in minder hysterische tijden en met betere kranten en TV-programma’s, ertoe leiden dat velen in zouden zoomen op de tekst van die wet zelf.
Dat is helaas niet of nauwelijks het geval. VOL heeft zich dan maar aan de taak gezet om die wet te vertalen en te helpen bij het interpreteren ervan.

Nu is Hongaars (naast Fins) de taal die het sterkst afwijkt van andere Europese talen, dus de eerste stap moet sowieso zijn: zorgen voor een betrouwbare vertaling van de wetstekst. [1]

Na een schets van de context en de grote lijn van de tekst volgt hieronder (vanwege het gestelde in de noot) de integrale vertaling naar het Engels van respectievelijk de toelichting (Justification, zeg maar de Memorie van Toelichting) en de wetstekst.

De grote lijn en de context
De wetstekst is pas kort geleden ingediend: 10 juni 2021.
Inclusief die korte toelichting op het waarom van deze wetswijzigingen telt de hier vertaalde tekst een kleine 6000 woorden.

Wet 16365 is geen nieuwe wet. In het hieronder in het Engels weergegeven stuk zijn wijzigingsvoorstellen samengevat die betrekking hebben op een zevental bestaande wetten; die wetten worden –met uitzondering van de Strafwet– aangeduid met een getal in Romeinse cijfers en een jaartal.

De vertaling betreft de samenvatting van 16365 door een ‘wetgevende commissie’ van het Hongaarse parlement, geschreven ten behoeve van het gehele parlement. Dat het een betrouwbare weergave is van het wetsvoorstel baseer ik mede op wat die commissie schrijft over de stemmingen in het parlement: de wijzigingen onder punt 6 en 7 vergen een tweederde meerderheid!

Die zeven wetten zijn:
1. Wet XXXI uit 1997 over de bescherming van kinderen en het regelen van voogdijschap,
2. Wet XLVIII uit 2008 over adverteren,
3. Wet XLVII uit 2007 over de registratie van criminelen,
4. Wet CLXXXV uit over de media en massacommunicatie,
5. Wet CXC uit 2011 over het algemene onderwijs,
6. Wet I uit 2012, de Arbeidswet,
7. Hoofdstuk 11 uit de Strafwet (CHECK), de penal code meer in het bijzonder.

Die set van wetswijzigingen hebben allemaal dezelfde twee doelen, zoals direct bij het eerste van de in totaal 23 wijzigingen wordt geformuleerd. Dat amendement heeft betrekking op hierboven als eerste genoemde ‘Protection of Children and the Administration of Guardianship’.

Door wat er in dat eerste amendement staat, is direct duidelijk: indien het hier om een anti-homo-wet zou gaan, dan is het anti-homo gedeelte er in gesmokkeld onder een dekmantel van het beschermen van kinderen.
Met andere woorden: dat is dus waar Rutte en de zijnen de Hongaarse politiek van beschuldigt. Rechten van kinderen zouden misbruikt worden om zo homoseksualiteit aan te vallen.
Ik geef de vertaling van de centrale tekstregels in amendement nummer 1 zodoende ook eerst nog in het Nederlands. In dat amendement staan ook maar twee verschillende regels:

1) In het stelsel voor kinderbescherming beschermt de staat het recht van kinderen op het geslacht waarmee ze geboren zijn. (Deze regel staat er dan wel twee keer in.)
2) Voor de toepassing van deze wet en teneinde de rechten van kinderen te waarborgen, is het verboden pornografische inhoud te produceren of beschikbaar te maken voor kinderen onder de 18 jaar die seksualiteit uitbeeldt om het uitbeelden van seksualiteit of waarbij afwijking van het aangeboren geslacht, geslachtsverandering of homoseksualiteit wordt getoond of aangeprezen.

U ziet het: de eerste regel heeft uitsluitend betrekking op transgenderij, terwijl in de tweede regel naast geslachtsverandering inderdaad ook homoseksualiteit aan de orde komt.

In elke regel van de tekst is volstrekt duidelijk dat het uitsluitend gaat om jongeren tot 18 jaar.

Dat verklaart waarom ook mensen die zelf homoseksueel zijn en al lang vóór de ophef over Hongarije daar al mee uit de kast zijn gekomen, zich achter de Hongaren hebben gesteld. Ja, ook onder homo’s zijn er verantwoordelijke en dappere mensen die er weet van hebben dat op de (welkome) golf van toegenomen tolerantie voor homo’s, pedofielen steeds proberen mee te liften (Vandaar de afbeelding boven dit stuk. Zie ook dit.

Eigenlijk zoals verantwoordelijke volwassenen die wel eens aan travestieshows meedoen maar voor wie dat niet hun volledige identiteit en/of bron van inkomsten vormt, zich hebben uitgesproken tegen het opdringen van die shows aan kleine kinderen. Zoals vrouwen protesteren tegen het vernietigen van vrouwensport en het ondermijnen van hun veiligheid in het kader van de transgenderij.

Alle andere amendementen dan dat eerste, hebben betrekking op het daadwerkelijk in de praktijk brengen van wat hier eigenlijk al is aangeduid als de intentie van de wet en wat in die ‘Memorie van Toelichting’ nog wat verder wordt toegelicht.

In de Hongaarse praktijk hecht men wat minder aan het alleen maar uitspreken van intenties en het naar voren brengen van een mate van geschoktheid over iets in de werkelijkheid.

Duidelijke concrete stappen in de wetswijzigingen betreffen A) (met name in amendement 6) aanscherping van bepalingen die gaan over een categorisatie van films en dergelijke naar geschiktheid voor een bepaalde leeftijd (het gaat ook over geweld), filmkeuring heette dat vroeger bij ons en B) (met name in amendement 8) de organisatie van iets dat we in Nederland kennen als de verplichte ‘Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag‘. Die geldt met name voor benoemingen in het onderwijs. In het Hongaarse wetsvoorstel wordt niet alleen gesproken over het wat dat betreft in de gaten houden van leraren, maar ook voor mensen die van buiten worden uitgenodigd om ‘voorlichting te geven’.

Precies de manier waarop zaken in landen als Nederland het ernstigst fout lopen: scholen en leraren die radicale activisten uitnodigen op school.

Die ‘memorie van toelichting’ (‘Justification‘) omvat slechts circa 800 woorden. Inhoudelijk meest verhelderend zijn de toelichtingen bij amendementen 1, 2, 6 en 7, waarmee dan ook begonnen wordt. Voor de rest betreft het slechts verwijzingen naar eerder gevoerd debat of zelfs dat niet. Die laatste regels heb ik weggelaten. Ook losse woorden, cijfers en tekens die in de Hongaarse tekst vermoedelijk voor wat meer leesbaarheid zorgden, maar in de vertaling die leesbaarheid juist verminderen, heb ik weggelaten.

NOTEN:
1) Schrijver dezes kende slechts een enkel Hongaars woord en dat is bovendien een nogal bedenkelijke term (Összetartozunk). Daarmee lijkt het dus op het eerste gezicht een vrijwel onmogelijke uitdaging, zeker voor wie wel eens Google Translate heeft gebruikt om iets te vertalen naar het Nederlands. Soms herken je waarom een (deel van) zo’n vertaling helemaal de mist ingaat: het is niet zozeer de vertaling vanuit de brontekst naar het Engels, maar de vervolgstap: vertalen van de als tussentaal gebruikte Engels naar het Nederlands. Vertalingen naar het Engels zijn aanzienlijk beter. Gelukkig bestaat er tegenwoordig bovendien een (beter) alternatief voor Google: Deepl. Ook daar is de Engelse versie duidelijk beter dan de Nederlandse. Ik heb gemakshalve maar ook opzettelijk geen moeite gedaan om de DEEPL-vertaling te verbeteren qua zinsbouw e.d..

2) Ik heb getwijfeld of ik het zou doen, maar besloten het toch toe te voegen: een tamelijk gedetailleerde beschrijving van de manier waarop ik persoonlijk ‘kennis heb gemaakt’ met homoseksualiteit. Mijn ervaringen zijn namelijk toevallig nogal leerzaam en zelfs een beetje grappig.

a) Op de middelbare school werd de term ‘homo’ tamelijk vaak gebruikt. Niet in positieve zin. Mij viel op dat de jongens die dat deden iets van twijfel over hun seksualiteit/geaardheid leken te willen overschreeuwen.
b) Twee vervelende gebeurtenissen speelden zich af toen ik 17 was: tijdens mijn stage op een scheepswerf respectievelijk in de straten van Delft, waar ik toen net begonnen was met studeren. Beiden zo onaangenaam dat ik ze me nog kan herinneren, maar ook niet echt traumatisch: ik kende niet de allergeringste twijfel over mijn heteroseksuele geaardheid, maar ik had een weinig macho uitstraling.
c) De volgende twee gebeurtenissen vonden plaats toen ik 18 was. Mijn intelligentie en dwarse gedrag bij de militaire keuring vielen op en ik kreeg een gesprek met een arts. Deze vroeg o.a. of ik soms homo was. Ik zei nee, maar ik werd niet boos over die vraag. Ik werd afgekeurd op vage gronden. Vele jaren later ontdekte ik pas dat ik vanwege dat niet boos reageren op die vraag, ‘officieel vaag‘ geregistreerd was als homo en daarom was afgekeurd. Een vriendelijke oudere student van Chinese afkomst, zocht vriendschap met mij. Het duurde enige tijd voordat hij duidelijk maakte dat hij homo was en seksueel in mij geïnteresseerd was. Een vooral pijnlijke ervaring voor ons beiden.
d) Via mijn toenmalige echtgenote vroeg een lesbisch stel met kinderwens mij of ik zaaddonor wilde spelen. Ik bedankte beleefd. Niet lang daarna kregen ze een tweeling. Ik was toen zelf al twee keer vader en ben inmiddels vijf keer opa.
e) Tientallen jaren later, in deze eeuw, had ik twee keer een serieus gesprek met een homoseksuele kennis: beiden intelligente en rationeel ingestelde mannen, geen van beide van het type ‘slappe pols’/’televisieberoemdheid’. Een gesprek over de herkomst van homoseksualiteit. Tot mijn verbazing vertelden ze mij allebei dat homoseksualiteit volgens hen deels maar niet volledig genetisch bepaald is.

3) Alle vet in de vertaalde tekst is door mij toegevoegd.

Justification (Indokolás)

1-2., 6-7. The State has a duty under the Fundamental Law to establish rules establishing a legislative environment and a system of institutions which guarantee the protection necessary for the physical, mental and moral development of children and the preservation and protection of their identity, which is immutable from birth. In order to do this, the legislator must go beyond the general rules laid down in the Fundamental Law and establish practical, tangible rules to protect these values. It is clear that certain content should be taught to children at an age appropriate to their age, in order to promote their healthy spiritual and intellectual development. Some content may be misunderstood by children below a certain age, or may be harmful to their development at that age, or simply beyond their capacity to deal with, and therefore [No, nothing is missing here!, FG]
Number of amendments: 23
1.
…from [address data ] address data according to …
2.
… confuses the developing moral and ethical values or even the developing view of oneself and the world.
The amendment therefore defines, in the spirit of the Fundamental Law and in order to safeguard the healthy physical and mental development of children, the content of which children must be prevented from encountering in the various media and advertising.
To this end, the proposal amends Act XLVIII of 2008 on the Basic Conditions and Certain Restrictions on Commercial Advertising Activities, which prohibits the making available to children under the age of eighteen of advertising that depicts sexuality for its own sake, or that promotes or displays a difference in identity from the sex of birth, gender reassignment or homosexuality. The amendment to the Mttv. ensures that a programme which has as its main element the promotion, presentation or representation of sexuality for its own purpose, or the promotion, presentation or representation of sexuality for its own purpose, shall be classified in category V. As a consequence of the proposal, advertising should also be classified in category V of the Act. And the Media Council will be obliged to request effective action by the Member State having jurisdiction over the foreign media service provider that has infringed the relevant rules.

The content of the above points is interlinked

3. See the explanatory memorandum to the Commission’s amendment closing the in-depth debate T/16365/10/1.
4. Following a comment from the National Office for the Judiciary, the bill is amended to extend the scope of data that can be retrieved from criminal records to include the time of the offence.
5. The proposal addresses the comment of the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information by first displaying only the photograph of the persons concerned and the name of the municipality of residence of the persons concerned in the case of multiple hits, rather than all the data in the register. The amendment aims to comply with the purpose limitation requirement.
8 & 11 The proposal introduces rules on the holding of school sessions, including sex education sessions, by organisations of questionable professional credibility and in many cases of a specific sexual orientation. In these sessions, representatives of certain organisations seek to influence children’s sexual development through what they call a sensitisation programme in the context of anti-discrimination education, which may cause serious damage to children’s physical, mental and moral development. The aim of the amendment is to ensure that only persons or organisations listed in an official and constantly updated register are allowed to provide sessions for children. The detailed rules will be published by decree of the Minister for Human Resources. The bill creates liability for offences for both the head of the establishment and the person providing the activities.
The content of the above points is interrelated.
9. The amendment clarifies the interpretation of the existing provisions by specifying the rules on the verification of the employability condition and the reimbursement of the costs of the person seeking to establish an employment relationship and the employee, and, following the observation of the Curia
clarifies the employer’s obligation to terminate the employment relationship with immediate effect in the absence of proof of a ground for exclusion.
