Representatives of the State Chancellery participated in the international conference - The Future of the Judicial System of the European Union, held from 30 May to 1 June, in Iasi, Romania. The event was attended by the President of the EU Court of Justice, Professor Koen Lenaerts, Judges of the Court and the Tribunal, officials of national institutions, as well as scientists and lawyers.

During the event, the participants discussed new developments in the European judicial system, changes in the procedural architecture of the EU Court of Justice, the role of the judge in the development of the law, and the prospects of the Romanian judiciary.

On June 1, the employees of the Centre for Harmonization of Legislation within the State Chancellery had a meeting with the Government Agent of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the Undersecretary of State at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania, Radu Caţar, during which they exchanged opinions on the process of compliance of the Moldovan legislation with the European one. The sides highly appreciated the open and constructive character of the bilateral relations, stressing the strategic cooperation at the level of the Moldovan-Romanian intergovernmental commission for European integration.

The participants in the meeting paid special attention to the importance of the technical assistance provided to Romania in the process of adjusting the legislation to the EU legislation, as well as to the discussion of the issues of continuity and cooperation between the institutions, in order to adjust the national structure to the European standards.

We note that in 2012, the Centre for Harmonization of Legislation initiated and officially formalized a dialogue with the Romanian side on institutional cooperation in the field of harmonization of legislation under the aegis of the Moldovan-Romanian intergovernmental commission for European integration.
