The Supreme State Audit has noted irregularities at the Ministry of
Labor, Social Matter and Equal Chances and at the Ministry of Tourism,
Youth, Culture and Sports, on the way who they use the funds for TV ads
and other cultural activities.

According to the Supreme State Audit, the damage that has been noted at the Ministry of Labor is 9.2 million ALL. This is an abuse with the realization of a TV add for the May 1st celebrations, and has been received only by one single private company.

According to the SAA, the legal infringements with the funds are related with the non-professional Commission that valued the offer and the absence of the necessary documentation.

The SAA says that the damage at the Ministry of Tourism is related with the usage of funds for the production and broadcasting of the TV advertisement that promotes the Albanian tourism. According to the SAA, although the payment has been realized, many TV ads have not been broadcasted. For this reason, the damage caused by the Ministry of Tourism is around 4.4 million ALL.

Based on these two cases, the SAA suggests the improvement of the production law, the purchase of advertisements or programs that the institutions create with the media.
