The law initiated by the PSD deputy Cătălin Rădulescu, nicknamed “Machine Gun”, received the final vote from the Chamber of Deputies on December 15, 2020, the last day of the last legislature. PNL and USR deputies voted against the initiative.

The normative act stipulates that those accused of tax evasion of up to 100,000 euros, a crime that is currently punishable by imprisonment, escape only with a fine if they pay the damage in full, and if they give an additional 20%, the deed is not punished at all, regardless of the amount of evasion.

The enactment of the law was criticized by USR PLUS, by magistrates’ associations, and by the business community, who described it as an invitation to tax evasion.
