Business: Amnesty failed

24/09/2011 00:00

Albanian businesses say that the Amnesty law, passed by the Albanian government, does not fulfill the main goal of capital declaration; hence
they asked the government to take measures for not allowing the amnesty
to fail.

“There is still much to do. The Ministry of Finances must gather each sector so that the law will draw entrepreneurs and offer them security for applying it”, declared the Chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, Nikolin Jaka.

The Chamber of Commerce was one of the main initiators for planning the law of the Financial Amnesty. But the government did not fully accept the draft proposed by the business, changing the articles related with guarantees. Since then, the businesses’ approach to the process has been almost indifferent, and the numbers indicate a very low participation.

“We have no statistics about the participation level, because the Ministry of Finances does not periodically publish them. But our skepticism has accompanied the passing and implementation of this law”, Jaka declared.

While expressing strong reserves about the declared capitals, the head of the Chamber of Commerce greeted the initiative of the Tirana Municipality for unblocking the stalemate of the real estate registration for 400 apartment buildings in Tirana.
