LEGISLATIVE REGULATIONS 23/06/2010 |
(2010-06-23) |
Last updated: 2010-06-24 12:20 EET |
Unlike the law on integrity in holding public offices, which must be passed by senators as well, the civil and criminal codes must only be passed by the Chamber of Deputies, which is the decision making chamber of the Romanian Parliament. Benefiting from the support of all parliamentary groups, the draft civil procedure code got 213 votes and just one abstention.
According to the State Secretary with the Romanian Justice Ministry Rodica Constantinovici, the new Code provides for a simpler range of legal means and procedures and sets the proper ground for a correct settling of court cases. “We managed to be wise enough to get over political ambitions and give Romania a modern legal code” said MP Daniel Buda, chairman of the Legal Committee, hailing the fact that all MPs came together to support the reform of the Romanian civil law. What’s left is for all those involved in the justice system to make sure the provisions of that code will reach the targets for which it was devised in the first place, say those who worked on what they call an ‘ambitious, major and difficult’ project.
The criminal procedure code was also passed by deputies, and several amendments were endorsed. One of them provides for the extension of a judge’s rights. MP Marton Arpad, initiator of the amendment, explained that whenever a right was restricted or specific criminal prosecution procedures were due,the judge’s approval must be requested. Also, the judge must endorse a DNA testing if required. Also benefiting from the support of a large majority in the Chamber of Deputies was the law on the functioning of the National Integrity Agency. The draft law was debated and then amended, since in April the Constitutional Court had decided that some of its provisions did not comply with the Constitution. The reviewed draft was then passed at the request and in the form proposed by president Traian Basescu.
The deputies chose just one type of personal statement, which besides personal information, should also include the personal numerical code. In order to comply with the Constitutional Court’s decision regarding a person’s right to privacy, the personal numerical code, the address and the signature cannot be seen by the general public. As suggested by the head of state, the deputies also amended the powers of the Integrity Agency. Besides the analysis and assessment of information, according to the new law, the Agency may carry out wealth control activities as well.
