Summary/Abstract: According to the Law No. 144/2007, republished in 2009, Romania becomes the first European country that has created an institution specialized in controlling the wealth, the conflicts of interest and the way in which incompatibility regime is obeyed. Analyzing the juridical nature of this institution, we can see that it is an independent administrative authority, which is not subordinated to the Government, and that functions according to the principle of operational independence. Further on, we underline the existence of some inadvertences among different texts of Law No. 144/2007, regarding the organization and functioning of National Integrity Agency, incongruence among some regulations and other laws, incomplete or unclear written texts. In order to eliminate these voids, we make, at the end of the paper some draft legal proposals which, in our opinion, could confer clarity to the text and would lead to more efficiency in applying the law.
