She lists the stipulation that defines non-profit tenants of denationalized apartments as tax payer as controversial.

Nussdorfer points out that this is inconsistent with the principle of equality, since those living in the former socially owned apartments, which have not been denationalized, are not subject to paying the taxes. She therefore believes that they should be exempt from said tax or be subject to special tax reliefs. This is already the seventh request or petition for review of the constitutionality of the real estate law.

The previous six requests were united in the one case by the Constitutional Court. They were filed by representatives of municipalities and some municipalities themselves as well as a group of Members of Parliament and the Council of State. The Constitutional Court will adopt a decision on it by the end of this month.
