Prime Minister Edi Rama met with local government leaders and UNDP
representatives in Tirana to sign a cooperation agreement. Rama said
that the new territorial division is a state-forming process that aims
to transform the inherited administrative units into economic
development ones.

“It is our mission to give to the Albanian people a local government based on the European standard. PNUD has made available the best auditing agency to determine the situation of local units. We must minimize losses and maximize revenues”, Rama declared.

The Prime Minister expressed the readiness of his cabinet to work for the decentralization process.

The agreement signed between the central and local governments foresees technical assistance from an international company for making an evaluation of the local capacities.

The Minister of Local Government, Bledi Cuci, said that this meeting will improve the situation in communes, which, according to him, are not accurate with the public registration spending.
