The Liberals appointed Augustin Zegrean, former president of the Romanian Constitutional Court, to head the Legislative Council.
The Legislative Council approves all bills submitted to Parliament before entering the two-house debate. The incumbents of the Legislative Council are appointed by the vote of the senators and deputies, but the law does not establish a term limit or a procedure by which they can be revoked, which means that they could serve for life.

Dragos Iliescu, a 77-year-old former president of the institution, has been in charge of the Legislative Council for a quarter of a century, according to Digi 24. First, in 1995, Dragos Iliescu was appointed by Parliament to head a section of the Council. Eight years later, in 2003, he assumed the presidency of the institution. He left office this summer.
