The government is going to approve, in Wednesday’s meeting, the draft laws of Justice, respectively the draft law on the status of judges and prosecutors, the draft law on judicial organization and the draft law on the Superior Council of Magistracy.
The Ministry of Justice emphasized last week that none of the provisions of the projects amending the Justice laws show that the binding character of the decisions of the Constitutional Court of Romania is “ignored”.
The Ministry sent a press release in which it made a series of clarifications after accusations were launched in the public space to the effect that the projects would be “retrograde” and national sovereignty would be violated or even “sold” under the conditions of elimination from the draft law regarding the status of judges and prosecutors, the possibility of disciplinary sanctions against the judge for non-compliance with the decisions of the CCR, in favor of the application of a mandatory provision of European Union law.
The Superior Council of the Magistrate approved favorably, with 13 votes “for” and six “against”, the draft law on the status of judges and prosecutors (294 articles), the draft law on judicial organization (159 articles) and the draft law on the Superior Council of the Magistracy ( 96 articles), reminded MJ.
“From none of the provisions of the three drafts does it appear that the binding nature of the CCR decisions is ignored, no provision of the law stipulates their optional nature. The provisions of art. 147 paragraph (4) of the Constitution remain untouched. The drafts do not regulate the relations between The Constitution of Romania and the European Treaties have a completely and completely different purpose and normative content,” said the quoted source.
