In the context of the preparation of the opinion on the draft law on the amendment of certain normative acts (implementing the constitutional amendments on the judicial system), a delegation of the Venice Commission made a “virtual visit” to the Republic of Moldova on 16-17 May 2022. The delegation had several meetings with the following Moldovan authorities:
• the Minister of Justice,
• representatives of different political groups of the Parliament,
• the Supreme Court of Justice and the Association of Judges,
• international partners and NGOs.
This draft joint opinion is prepared under the Quick Response Mechanism within the framework of the EU/CoE joint programme Partnership for Good Governance, co-funded by the Council of Europe and the European Union and implemented by the Council of Europe.
The draft opinion will be submitted for adoption at the forthcoming plenary session of the Venice Commission (17-18 June 2022).
