NATO specialists and judges of the Constitutional Court are to rule on the Law regarding the protection of classified information, the new state secret Law.
The Government has asked the advice of a team of NATO specialists regarding the controversial law, while two opposition parties, PNL and PD, have announced that they will contest the normative act in the Constitutional Court.
The Government, through the National Defence Ministry, will invite a team of NATO specialists in the field of secret information protection in order to “expertise” the Law of classified information before it was promulgated by the President, Premier Adrian Nastase stated yesterday.
According to the Chief of the Executive, this decision was made following the media and civil society “disagreement” with the actual form of this law.
The Premier considers these disagreements were overstated and admits that a previous law of access to public information would have been useful.
