NECONSTITUȚIONALITATEA SERVICIILOR PUBLICE ORGANIZATE CA STRUCTURI REGIONALE

In this study, the author proves that the adoption of 5 resolutions of the Government of Romania, during 2005-2010, regulating the operation of deconcentrated public services, organized at regional level (each including many counties) is unconstitutional in relation to the provisions of art. 120 and 123 of the Constitution of Romania (revised and republished), since, according to these constitutional rules, the deconcentration of public administration can be done only at the level of counties or the Bucharest municipality, and the prefect (appointed in each country and in the Bucharest municipality) is the representative of the Government at local level, having – among other things – the competence to manage the deconcentrated public services of the ministries and of the other specialized central administration bodies in the administrativeterritorial units.
