Prevederile din lege ce împiedică unii funcţionari publici să candideze la funcţii de demnitate publică sunt neconstituţionale, a decis CCR

The Romanian Constitutional Court ruled that provisions preventing certain public officials from running for public office are unconstitutional. The court found that these rules create unjustified discrimination and discourage the right to run for office. The decision emphasizes that the requirement for high-ranking public officials to resign before candidacy does not balance public and individual interests appropriately. Furthermore, the court noted that the right to be elected is a possibility, not a guarantee, and should not replace the right to work.
