  • On 27 July 2015, the Romanian President promulgated the Law no. 8/1996 on copyright and related rights (Law for the completion of the Legea nr. 8/1996 privind dreptul de autor și drepturile conexe) with regard to orphan works (see IRIS 2006-8/27, IRIS 2012-4/38, IRIS 2015-5/30 and IRIS 2015-7/27).

    The new Law no. 210/2015 was published in the Official Journal of Romania no. 550 of 24 July 2015. It transposes into the Romanian legislation the Directive 2012/28 EC on certain permitted uses of orphan works. The Law has been adopted under an emergency procedure by the Senate (upper chamber of the Romanian Parliament) on 23 June 2015 and by the Chamber of Deputies (lower chamber) on 30 June 2015
