The law was enacted with 256 votes in favor and two abstentions.
State secretary Rodica Constantinovici underscored the decree does not refer to the amendment or invalidation of laws already in effect and called on lawmakers to enact it.
The decree was passed in June 2009 by the Government and allowed for normative acts to be amended or repealed upon adoption and prior to their coming into effect, but only for solid reasons. Under current legislation, only laws already in force may be amended or repealed.
