Hans-Ueli Vogt is a member of both the Swiss National Assembly and the Legal Commission of the National Council. He is also a full professor of law at the University of Zurich. Hans-Ueli recently drafted the „self-determination initiative“. This initiative, which will be subject to a referendum, seeks to ensure that the Federal Constitution becomes the ultimate source of law for the Swiss Confederation: putting its constitution above non-obligatory laws such as bilateral agreements with the EU.
