The standing bureaus decided the Government will present the bill merging next year’s local and parliamentary elections and the bill regulating judge appointments at the High Court of Justice on Thursday, December 15.
Any potential no-confidence motion will be submitted by Saturday, December 17.
Chamber of Deputies Speaker Roberta Anastase said Monday amendments to the two bills may be submitted until Thursday.
If a no-confidence motion is submitted, it will be read out in the Parliament plenum on December 19 and will be debated on December 22, she added.
The Government on Monday adopted the bill merging 2012 local and parliamentary elections and the one regulating High Court of Justice judge appointments and decided to seek the Parliament’s confidence vote to make them into laws, said Prime Minister Emil Boc.
Romania’s opposition Social Liberal Union said it will submit a motion of no-confidence over the Government’s plan to by-pass parliamentary procedure and adopt the two bills.
