In a few days, the 140 MPs who won their mandates in the May 11 elections will sit in the Parliament hall. Experienced legislators who renewed their contracts, 8 returnees from the opposition and Tom Doshi, as well as 74 young people will take their seats in the Assembly for the first time as elected from the winning lists, a mix between those elected by party leaders and the popular vote.
54 from the left, 15 from the "Greater Albania" coalition, 2 MPs from Tom Doshi and 1 elected from each of the three new parties: Albania Becomes, Opportunity and Together Movement. Although more than half of the MPs will perform this task for the first time, they have not had a positive impact on reducing the average age, as the new Parliament will be 47 years old.
Among the two main parties, the Democrats are slightly older, with an average age of around 50, in terms of MPs who will sit in the Assembly, writes A2 CNN. The other formation is the one that lowers the overall average, as Edi Rama's 83 MPs are slightly older than 45.
The parliament will have the youngest MP, 24-year-old Marjana Koçeku, from the SP lists in Shkodra, followed by Zegjine Çaushi, the 27-year-old Socialist from Fier, who went viral during the campaign with her irony towards Gazment Bardhi.
At the other extreme stands Sali Berisha, who, having served as President and Prime Minister, at 81 years of age enjoys the right to lead Parliament at the opening of the legislature, as the oldest MP in the chamber. If Berisha refuses this "privilege", another Democrat doctor, 76-year-old Tritan Shehu, takes over, while the third candidate comes from the ranks of the Socialists, 68-year-old Vasil Llajo.
Most of the new arrivals to Parliament have been engaged in politics for years, albeit at different levels, as ministers, former mayors or deputy mayors, as well as former directors of institutions. There is also no shortage of those who come from the world of entrepreneurship: economists, lawyers, doctors or teachers.
There have often been representatives from the media field in Parliament, but this time there will be 5 MPs who have completed their studies in journalism or have worked in this sector: from pedagogy in the ranks of the socialists Iris Luarasi, Tedi Blushi of the PL, Ardit Bido, Erald Kapri or even Minister Arbjan Mazniku. Artists are also not lacking - one of them, Ermal Pacaj, was also part of the LRC music group in Lezha.
Two elected deputies have only a secondary education: socialist entrepreneur Skënder Pashaj and Ana Dajko of the "Albania Becomes" Initiative, which so far enjoys the mandate that Adriatik Lapaj had designed for himself, according to the agreement between the candidates of this entity.
The profiles of the new MPs will also affect their placement in parliamentary committees, as the SP and DP have removed from their teams the chairmen and deputy chairmen of 4 permanent committees, starting with Laws, Productive Activity, National Security and Foreign Affairs. The two special committees, Disinformation and Anti-Corruption, will also be part of the reformatting, if they continue to function in September in the same form, as they have been boycotted by the opposition since their establishment.
