Wednesday's decisions of the Constitutional Court (CCR) allow the implementation of two more important reforms - that of state-owned companies and that of the health system, for which the Government has undertaken its responsibility through the 2nd Package of reforms, Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan said."These two decisions are added to last month's decision of the CCR regarding the law on self-financed authorities, so that three of the five normative acts in Package 2 have already passed the constitutionality test.
