Summary/Abstract: The Constitution of Romania regulates the constitutional review of the Standing Orders of each Chamber of the Parliament, and the Law on the organization and functioning of the Constitutional Court regulates the constitutional review of the Resolutions of the Parliament. Over time, an established case-law of the Constitutional Court of Romania has been straightened out, likely to reveal both the extent of the constitutional powers and the rules to be complied with by the Parliament in adopting the resolutions, as well as the extent of the powers of the Constitutional Court in carrying out the above- mentioned powers. This study is aimed at highlighting the importance of the constitutional review of the Standing Orders and resolutions of the Parliament in order to ensure the rule of law.
