Authorities
Who does what
Knowing whom to approach, and for what, saves wasted effort.
Legislative update of 28 July 2026. Act no. 37-A/2026 established the governance of the RTRI, created its Management Board, repealed Article 19 of Act no. 5-A/2026 and replaced the transitional regime with a staggered timetable. English-language commentary published before that date — including the earlier version of this website — is out of date. See the consolidated calendar.
