What should the people wanting to use name inherited from ancestors in official documents do?
Bill on writing non-Lithuanian names is to be submitted to a debate of the parliament next week. Even if the act will be adopted, Polish people living in Lithuania still won’t be able to write down their full names in the original version. Then what should the people wanting to use names inherited from ancestors in official documents do? More on this in the next issue of Klub u Redaktorów in which the guests of Walenty Wojniłło – a member of Lithuanian Parliament Beata Pietkiewicz, Tygodnik Wileńszczyzny’s editor Tadeusz Andrzejewski and legal expert at the European Foundation of Human Rights (EFHR), Ph.D. Łukasz Wardyn – will all engage in the discussion on the subject.
