Ministry of JusticeGovernment

The Ministry of Justice of Romania is a central specialized body of the executive government responsible for public administration within the judicial sphere and ensuring the proper functioning of the legal system. Its mandate includes drafting legislation, overseeing the judicial infrastructure, managing the penitentiary system, and representing the state in international legal cooperation. Tracing its organizational roots to the Organic Regulations of the early 1830s, it was formally consolidated as a unified ministerial institution in 1862 following the union of the Romanian Principalities.
