Minister of Regional Development, Social Democrat Daniel Suciu, said the Ombudsman's challenging of the Administrative Code with the Constitutional Court of Romania (CCR) is in fact a "political positioning" of ALDE (Alliance of Liberals and Democrats), adding that he will continue to support the Code's beneficial provisions for the Romanian administration.
On Wednesday, the Ombudsman announced he filed a constitutional challenge against the OUG 57/2017 regarding the Administrative Code with the Constitutional Court.
In the challenge, the Ombudsman specified the ordinance did not meet the exigencies of the Constitution regarding the legislative delegation, as developed through the jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court.
