The member of the DP leadership, Grigels Muçollari , in a statement to the media stated that Olsi Komici , who has so far performed the duty of commissioner in the Independent Qualification Commission .
According to the Democratic Party, one of the new justice bodies that dealt with the vetting process, the removal of prosecutors and judges, following the removal of the director from the National Food Authority.
"This appointment of an important vetting commissioner in a government agency also proves the lack of independence of this judicial process," said Muçollari.
Full statement:
For two days now, the main media in the country have been reporting that the director of the National Food Authority has left, and Olsi Komici has taken over, who until now has served as commissioner in the Independent Qualification Commission, one of the new justice bodies that dealt with the vetting process and the removal of prosecutors and judges.
It is understood that the government does not see it necessary to be transparent about this movement.
There is no doubt that the head of the AKU should be held accountable and should be removed from that position, due to the systemic failure and due to the food insecurity that exists in Albania today.
The problem is that the government and the Prime Minister see this office not as a major public responsibility, but as a position to satisfy their interests and reward their influence.
This appointment, of an important vetting commissioner in a government agency, also proves the lack of independence of this process in justice.
The National Food Authority is an institution that has a very strong obligation to the public and citizens regarding the quality and guarantee of what people consume.
Edi Rama, who personally consumes wine for 33 thousand euros per bottle, frequents the most expensive detoxification centers in Europe, certainly has no problem with what citizens eat and drink.
He is more interested in rewarding someone who has served him with a position.
For the Democratic Party, food security is equal to national security.
We are committed to guaranteeing the quality and safety of food, to guaranteeing the health of citizens.
With the best experts in the field, with the right investment to improve the system.
Food insecurity will end on May 11, with the change that the vote of Albanians will bring.
