Moldovan parliamentary and judicial reforms

Overview

The Moldovan Parliament has undertaken several legislative and structural reforms. Initially, the Parliament underwent a significant restructuring of its standing committees following requests from the Action and Solidarity Party (PAS). This reshuffle included new leadership for the Committee on Economy, Budget, and Finance, the Committee for European Integration, and various parliamentary delegations.

Following these organizational changes, the Parliament voted in the first reading on a draft law to reform the selection process for Constitutional Court judges. The proposed legislation aims to increase transparency by extending the selection timeline, implementing a public evaluation phase for candidate CVs, and requiring public interviews to ensure the integrity of judicial appointments.
