The Government's lack of transparency in the legislative processhas caused dissatisfaction even among its own territorialrepresentatives, with one prefect saying this week in avideoconference attended by Premier Emil Boc that he is notfamiliar with draft laws before they are adopted in Governmentmeetings.

At present, although all legislation set for adoption needs tobe published on the website of the originating institution at least30 days in advance, the Government's lack of coordination precludesdraft laws from becoming available in advance. Three institutionsare involved in the process of adopting a draft law: the GeneralSecretariat of Government (SGG), which ought to publish on itswebsite the drafts set to be discussed, the Government, whichannounces its meetings without providing those involved with thenecessary drafts, and the ministries, which often forget to publishthe draft laws under debate on their websites. The Hunedoaraprefect, Attila Dezsi, recommended to the Prime Minister to informhis territorial representatives of the legislative modificationsand of the reasons for adopting or for modifying laws beforeGovernment meetings, so as to know what explanations to give whenasked.
