A group of 26 members of the Romanian Parliament proposed to modify the Law of Physical Education and Sport in order to ensure that school students have three classes of physical education per week instead of one. The Romanian Members of the Parliament motivate their initiative by the increasing rate of mortality, obesity and sedentariness, especially among young people.

The initiators are worried about the number of hours youngsters spend in front of their TV or computer screens in spite of the hours spent outside playing sports.
