Scurte comentarii asupra unor prevederi ale Legii nr. 199 din 2023 privind învățământul superior incidente asupra activității comisiilor de etică universitară
A short summary of some provisions of Law no. 199 of 2023 regarding higher education, applicable to the activities of university ethics commissions

Summary/Abstract: The new law on higher education, Law 199 of 2023, is one of the laws that have sparked wide debates in the public space for various reasons, including those regarding the regulation of university ethics. It is clear to us that new regulations were needed, as the previous law (Law 1 of 2011, still in force at the time of writing this study) had enough loopholes to determine a chaotic application, both at the institutional level and at the court level, of the rules regarding university ethics. These comments on the new regulations open the series of articles on legislative news, through a first presentation of those regulations that target the most important aspects from the perspective of the functioning of ethics commissions. Aspects regarding the independence of the commissions and their functional structure, the legal regime of the documents issued by the commission and the new sanctions applicable to those who violate the norms of university ethics and deontology are presented. It is noted that more in-depth analyzes of these provisions can only be made after the issuance by the Government or the Ministry of Education of the normative acts implementing the law.
