The necessity and limitations of constitutional regulation of public administration

The Constitution of the Republic of Moldova, as well as the constitutions of other democratic states, includes a number of provisions applicable to public administration. In this study are presented the constitutional provisions on administrative authorities and their activity, as well as the arguments justifying the need and importance of constitutional regulation of public administration. The constitutional text cannot include detailed provisions on public administration because it is an area that is constantly changing. Thus, in the Constitution of the Republic of Moldova we find only fundamental rules, basic ideas and principles, but the details related to the organization and functioning of administrative authorities are set out in laws and acts subordinated to laws.
