The Justice System Cannot Undergo Reform Against Itself, Says Romanian President

The Romanian president said that negative report given by magistrates on the bill should make the bill initiators think twice regarding the matter.

Furthermore, Iohannis said that the Justice Ministry and the magistrates should renegotiate the bill.

The justice laws amendment bill received Thursday a negative report from the High Council of Magistracy. The bill proposes a series of amendments regarding the appointment of the Chief Prosecutor at Romania’s National Anticorruption Directorate and of the Prosecutor General, the appointment in leadership positions with the courts and prosecutors’ offices and the subordination of the Judicial Inspection to the Justice Ministry.
