In this study it is examined the legality of the control by the Court of Audit in the matter of public procurement provided that the legislator has conferred the jurisdiction of verifying the procedure for the award of these contracts to other specialized public authorities, and has conferred to the Court of Audit powers of general control on the manner of formation, management and use of the public financial resources. Taking advantage of these control powers with a wide range of coverage, the Court of Audit has extended, unlawfully, through its own regulations, this control over a specialized field, respectively that of the procedure for the award of public procurement contracts, overlapping the control exercised by other administrative authorities and affecting the stability of the legal relations arising from these contracts. That is why it is proposed the legislator’s intervention for the express regulation of the control powers of the Court of Audit in the matter of public procurement, the conditions and limits of this control, in order to avoid the parallelism and the conflict of jurisdiction between this public authority and the other specialized administrative authorities in the field. -
The idea of this study has as starting point the „ambiguity” which, under the influence of the current Community and internal regulations, floats over the legal distinction between „designs” and „models”, as well as over their legal nature. Thus, the common definition reserved by the internal and Community regulations for the design and for the model, as well as their alternative or cumulative use in the legal texts convincingly support the existence of this „normative ambiguity”. This „legal reality” is accompanied by the non-existence of some doctrinal concerns for arguing the specificity of designs and of models, mostly by reference of one to the other, but also by reference of these to other kinds of intellectual creation. In fact, as this issue has been approached in the Romanian doctrine, the authors confine themselves, as a rule, only to take over some theses from the foreign legal literature, especially from French one, being less concerned with their logical and legal grounding. -
