Prime Minister Mihai Tudose on Wednesday stated about justice laws that any law can be perfected and the Constitutional Court of Romania (CCR) might say certain things need to be improved. 

"The decision to bring these laws directly to Parliament belonged to the coalition. (...) They never reached the Government. The justice law did not leave from the Ministry of Justice and, for various reasons, it couldn't be properly finalized. One of these reason was of a technical nature, since these laws couldn't be brought out by the Government without the approval of the Venice Commission, which was set to meet only now, in January, and other approvals were needed too, and then it was decided to bring it directly to Parliament, since there was no need for such approvals there. Secondly, from a procedural point of view or, if you want, from a media perspective, the huge scandal in January 2017 burst because the government members drafted the laws overnight, "like thieves", without submitting it to Parliament, which is the democratic forum of the country, for debate. (...) If they are good, or bad, or they can be perfected, for any law can be perfected, since we did not write the Bible now, the Constitutional Court will decide, this is life. In the end, the Parliament, which is the supreme democratic institution, gave its opinion," Tudose Told Antena 3 private television channel. 

The Prime Minister said that he endorsed the procedure of adoption of the justice laws, but he added that he was not a specialist in constitutional law. 

"First of all, I endorse the procedure. I am not a specialist in constitutional law. The Constitutional Court could resolve that certain things need to be improved, we will see if they are very good or not. I voted for them," said Tudose.
