Debates at "Territorialja", Korreshi: The villages have been left
Territorial Reform Commission

The Territorial Reform Commission started work today.

During the hearing with representatives of civil society organizations, the two democratic MPs Bledion Nallbani and Saimir Korreshi asked some questions for Mrs. Albana Dhimitri, Executive Director at the Institute of Public and Private Policies.

Referring to a study on per capita income from the change of the territorial map, Dhimitri said that the income is much higher at the municipal level than before the reform.

Democratic deputy Bledjon Nallbati emphasized that the panorama presented by Dhimitri was not realistic.

Nallbati: I have two direct questions. He said that the revenues of the municipalities have increased. Do you see this as better efficiency of the municipalities or maybe it is related to the increase of taxes and local fees. Second, you say let's not deal with the salary fund. Today there are more parasites consuming Albanian taxpayers' money in local government units. Today, there are many employees who receive their salary without knowing what their job is, without going to work for a single day.

While MP Saimir Korreshi presented in the session some problems that the country's municipalities are facing.

Korreshi: Have you ever been in the field to see? Second, is it normal that 14 municipalities were merged into 12 existing municipalities? If you went down to the field, what is offered in the administrative units? I am not referring to Tirana, we who sleep down there are in trouble. Now you have digitized them, but those deserts have not come down to Lushnje for several years, not to have digitization. They plant watermelons there. How is it possible that today there are more employees in the administration even though we have digitized the services? Do you know that Lushnja's schools have been closed since 2015 and that 5 primary classes teach in one class with one teacher. This co-governance law adds or removes this autonomy. Now where is the quality of service? Has the quality of service increased in other municipalities? Did you make a report? Villages have been left barren.

Mrs. Dhimitri answered the deputies by bringing to attention 2 elements that are connected and separate from each other.

Dhimitri: There is a concept called the minimum national standard. The state creates those laws and obligates the municipalities to create the minimum national standard. Each citizen benefits from a minimum standard of services and municipalities compete with each other to achieve these standards. Debate does not return to the salary fund. Conceptualizing a reform is about where you look at local government, it's about the role you want to give to local government.
