CMS LawNow reports that the Romanian Senate is currently reviewing a national draft law aimed at regulating artificial intelligence in alignment with the EU AI Act. The draft legislation adopts a risk-based classification system and incorporates principles of human oversight, transparency, and data protection.

The bill includes provisions on high-risk AI systems, obligations for developers and deployers, and enforcement mechanisms. It also anticipates the creation of a national supervisory authority for AI governance. The initiative is part of Romania’s broader digital transformation and EU integration strategy.

The article suggests that the Romanian model could serve as a legislative template for other countries in Eastern Europe.
