Aged 57 years, Ion Stan is deputy of Dâmboviţa, a third consecutive term in the legislature.

He is Deputy Chairman of the Parliamentary Commission for the control of activities of SRI.

Moreover, since 2000, when he walked into Parliament, he served in SRI Commission , between 2000-2004 Chairman of this commission.
