Summary/Abstract: This paper is the next publication in the series intended to conduct wider research into the legal status of the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic. It aims at realizing its next phase which is an analysis of the system of Transnistria’s supreme state authorities, and is particularly devoted to Transnistria’s Parliament — the Supreme Council, which is the highest representative authority created to exercise the legislative power. The subject of the work is the origin and evolution of the Supreme Council, its composition and internal organization, the electoral procedure and status of the deputies, its functions and competencies, as well as its operation, presented on the basis of the exegesis of Transnistria’s constitutions (of 1991 and 1995) and the rules of procedure. The result of the research allows us to establish the effectiveness of the state apparatus and contributes to a more precise determination of the region’s legal status.
