The Parliament Speaker, Ilir Meta, together with the representatives of
the majority, have constituted today the Special Parliamentary
Commission for the Territorial Reform.
Despite the time given and the several invitations made by the Socialist Party, and even by The Albanian Prime Minister, Edi Rama, the opposition did not change it stance and was not present in the first meeting of this commission.
“The necessity to realize the territorial reform is extraordinary. I can say that time of this reform has gone away. I need to underline once again the good will of the majority to make this reform with the opposition, which has requested even in the past to do this, although we didn’t have the vote. The difference is that the majority of today, although we have the votes, we insist to cooperate with the opposition. Because we need their opinions, ideas and becausew e think thi sis a reform for all Albanian citizen”, Meta declared.
Parliament Member Bashkim Fino, vice chairman, declared that this reform is late and that the current situation is unacceptable.
“This commission has three basic issues: deciding the criteria for the administrative division; planning and implementing the calendar for implementing the reform and preparing the project for the territorial division that we will present at the Parliament. The all inclusiveness of the project for the territorial division that we will make for presenting it to the Parliament. The all inclusiveness should be a condition for a successful reform and with great impact in the life of the Albanian citizens. We will not stop trying for our opposition colleagues to be part of this reform”, Fino declared.
The majority members in the days to come will publish the calendar of the Commission’s works.
