Bucharest, June 23 – On Wednesday, Govt's bill package on judiciary system reform and property passed with a 60% majority vote, as the Chambers, in a joint session, dismissed a non-confidence motion issued by the opposition.
The motion was rejected with a vote of 265 to 186.
Thus, the law package on which the Government assumed responsibility last week is considered adopted.
The Speaker of the Lower Chamber, Adrian Nastase, said that the Social-Democrat opposition party will file a complaint at the Constitutional Court to rule against the bill.

Jonathan Scheele, Head of EC Delegation in Romania, said to national TV that the bill was an important step forward in Romania's bid for EU accession, and he is waiting for the law framework to be implemented as soon as possible.
