The Senate has the final saying on this matter.
The Romanian Chamber of Deputies on Wednesday approved with 159 votes pro and 7 abstentions an amendment to a Government emergency ordinance concerning the Constitutional Court, stating that the Court will issue rulings only with respect to the constitutionality of the Parliament’s legislative decisions.
The European Commission on Tuesday said in a draft report on Romania’s justice system that it is concerned by the recent limitation of competences of the Constitutional Court, regarding parliamentary decisions.
“The Romanian authorities must urgently restore these competences,” the report reads.
