Resolution of Issues Related to Implementation of OECD Guidelines

In providing the assistance, the Romanian National Contact Point:

• Makes an initial assessment of whether the issues raised merit further examination and responds to the party or parties raising them.
• Where the issues raised merit further examination, provides good offices to help the parties involved to resolve the issues.  For this purpose, the RNCP consults with these parties and where relevant:
  (a) Seeks advice from relevant authorities, and/or representatives of the business community, employee organizations, other non-governmental organizations, and relevant experts;
  (b) Consults the National Contact Point in the other country or countries concerned;
  (c) Seeks the guidance of the OECD Investment Committee if it has doubt about the interpretation of the Guidelines in particular instances;
  (d) Offers, and with the agreement of the parties involved, facilitates access to consensual and non-adversarial means, such as conciliation or mediation, to assist in dealing with the issues.

The specific instance request may be addressed to the Romanian National Contact Point by any individual or legal person and should contain the direct reference to the OECD Guideline that is considered to be infringed as well as the argumentation/documentation for this assumption. Within the specific instance request should be mentioned if the case is or was presented in a court of law.
