The National Council of SMEs in Romania announced the removal of provisions requiring companies to hire lawyers for contract drafting. This change was part of a contested amendment to the Law on Advocacy, which raised concerns about increased costs and bureaucracy for businesses. The organization celebrated this as a victory, although it did not clarify how the removal was achieved. The legislative proposal is still under parliamentary procedure, and the final modifications will be determined after updated documents are published. Other contested provisions remain unaddressed, and the impact on businesses is still uncertain.
