Nu sunt sigură, dar am întâlnit de multe ori "attached to". Poate se referă la altă relaţie decât cea definită de "pe lângă", dar here goes:
The Court of First Instance is an independent Court attached to the European Court of Justice.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_First_Instance
There is 1 legal aid institute attached to the court.

: Yes - though in this case I don't see how you could fit it in with "functions", you would have to have something like "attached to... is..."

however, ”near” (adverb) also means: ”With or in a close relationship.” Could this not be the case here?

In the case of "Parchetului de pe langa..." etc. this is often expressed in English with "at", but in this particular case "at" would sound strange because we have "functioneaza" in there and the word order is different:
"At the Court of Accounts functions the..." - doesn't work for me.
Personally I would rephrase this with "alongside" to make it sound natural. It means the same thing in effect but works with the word order of your sentence. Having said that, I would still change it around by saying that the Autoritatea de Audit etc. "functions alongside..." (much more natural word order).
"All declarations will be checked by a special vetting court working *alongside* the Court of Appeals. The Ministry of Justice has three months to determine who will comprise the special court and how it will carry out its duties. It is expected that 21 judges will handle the investigations; that is the most the state can afford..."

"In addition it has 13 other economic and political institutions to assist in its organisational functions, which include the European Central Bank, and the European Court of Justice, *alongside* the Court of First Instance.."

"It [Court of King's Bench - PS] gradually became a civil court *alongside* the Court of Common Pleas, serving also as an appellate court that had the jurisdiction to uphold or overturn judgments made in the Court of Common Pleas. It is now a division of the High Court of Justice."
