We asked Romania's ombudsman to notify the Constitutional Court regarding the Saligny ordinance

The adoption of the "Anghel Saligny" scheme through an emergency ordinance (OUG) is a flagrant violation of article 115, paragraph 4 of the Constitution. There is no extraordinary situation to justify the replacement of parliamentary procedures and the adoption of such a project by the Government! Not only that, it is mandatory to request an opinion from the Social and Economic Council, according to art. 141 of the Constitution, which did not happen for this legislative approach.

We cannot refer these things to the Constitutional Court, but someone can. Together with Expert Forum and over 20 other signatories, , we request Romania's ombudsman, Mrs. Renate Weber, to notify the Constitutional Court regarding the unconstitutionality of the OUG regarding the "Anghel Saligny" scheme.„. 

It is almost ironic how the lack of local infrastructure, a reality that many Romanians have lived with for decades and a fact well known by political parties, has suddenly become a justification for the urgency of adopting a scheme with a budget of 50 billion RON. The signatories of this letter consider that this method of legislation chosen by the Government is abusive and only serves political interests.
