Promotion of Laws by the President of the Republic of Moldova

Abstract

In this article we analyzed the peculiarities of the promulgation of laws by the President of the Republic of Moldova. In this sense, we started from the text of the Constitution and from the interpretations of the Constitutional Court. I found that upon receiving the law for promulgation, the President has the following possibilities: 1) to promulgate the law within the constitutional terms; 2) to ask the Parliament once and for all to re-examine the law; 3) to notify the Constitutional Court for the control of the constitutionality of the received law. At the same time, I pleaded for the interruption of the constitutional term for the promulgation of the law in the event of the notification by the President of the Republic of Moldova of the Constitutional Court for the exercise of a priori control of constitutionality. Finally, we made proposals to improve the constitutional provisions regarding the enactment of laws.
