Speaker Andrian Candu said the failure to vote the bill to enshrine the European integration course in the Constitution is one of the main regrets related to the last legislative body’s work of the past few years. The Speaker also expected the quality of laws to be better, IPN reports.

“I always wanted the laws to be of the highest quality and better implemented. We managed to do more in some of the areas, like the financial-banking sector, and less in other areas. I’m glad that emphasis this year was placed more on the social part. A lot was done in such areas as salaries, pensions, roads, reforms, infrastructure, and social assistance,” Andrian Candu stated in the talk show “Reply” on Prime TV channel.

The Speaker said he also has regrets about draft laws that concerned the working process of MPs. “The non-voting of the bill to insert the European integration in the Constitution is a failure. We didn’t manage to introduce the electronic voting even in the parliamentary procedures. We didn’t vote an ethical code and a parliamentary code that would stipulate elements of conduct and ethics. We gave that Parliament’s Code a first reading only as we didn’t have enough time,” stated Andrian Candu.

The Speaker noted the shortcomings are related to the lack of time only and the legislature nevertheless has more successes than failures.

Parliament held its last sitting where it could adopt organic laws on November 30.
