2015 (answers within ±1 count)
Why
2015. The same reform abolished the faltas, converted part of their content into delitos leves, introduced reviewable permanent imprisonment and reworked the corporate liability regime. It is the most consequential recasting of the 1995 Code so far, which is why any citation to the Code needs a date attached to it.
