The recent ordinance amending the Justice Laws, announced on Tuesday by Justice Minister Tudorel Toader "represents a means of repression against magistrates who don't respond to the Social Democratic Party (PSD) - the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats (ALDE)'s commands," shows the simple motion on Justice lodged with the Deputies' Chamber by the National Liberal Party on Wednesday.
According to the document called "Tudorel Toader and PSD-ALDE, take your dirty hands off Justice!," which asks Toader to "leave" the office, "obedience, lying, irresponsibility and bad faith being the cause of Justice's kneed down."
The Liberals challenge the emergency ordinance regarding some temporary measures related to the admission contest at the National Institute of Magistracy, the initial professional training of judges and prosecutors, the graduation exam of the National Institute of Magistracy, the internship and the examination of intern judges' and prosecutors' ability, as well as the amendment and addition of Law No.303/2004 on the status of judges and prosecutors, Law No. 304/2004 on judicial organization and Law No. 317/2004 on the Superior Council of Magistracy.
They say that the normative act is an incalculable demarche that contradicts the principles of the rule of law and endangers even Romania's democracy.
