The chairman of the Investigative Commission for health concessions, Albana Vokshi, has called the next meeting, but the majority has again announced that they will boycott.
This is the second time that the representatives of the majority will not be present at the meeting, as they have boycotted the work of the investigative commission before.
The majority has expressed its views through a letter where it says that in fact there is no reason for the commission to meet or continue with the examination of other items on the agenda.
"We note with regret, that even through this letter, as well as in the sessions of the commission meeting, you are trying to inject the spirit of imposition, prejudice and haste to carry out a political party process and not a "regular legal process", based on constitutional values and principles, says the answer of the socialists.
According to them, before deciding on the development of meetings, the date, time, place and agenda should be consulted with the parties.
"Referring to letter No. 1231 dated 03.04.2024 signed by 1/3 of the members of this Commission, it is claimed that the members of the majority refused to discuss point 4 of the agenda, which was related to "requests for information". The fact that you mix up the items on the agenda is another indication of the institutional seriousness with which you treat the commission's work. Item 4 of the agenda was "scheduling the next meeting", which the Chairman of the commission refused to take into consideration, in order to agree with the present members on the next meeting.
Item 3 of the agenda was not approved by the committee, since Article 15 of Law No. 8891 dated 02.05.2002 "On the organization and functioning of the Investigative Committees of the Assembly" clearly defines the procedure that must be followed for the development of the normal activity of Parliamentary Investigative Commissions, under the spirit of the Constitution and the special law. The Commission collects data on the case through selected legal experts and only the legal experts have the right to report their findings to the Commission and propose the investigation plan.
Meanwhile, as it appears from your letter, you have requested for discussion the same issue on which the Commission has made a decision.
Until this investigation plan is drawn up, the Commission has no reason to overdo it or continue with the examination of other items on the agenda.
The commission with an intermediate decision approves the investigation plan according to the experts' proposals until they are completed. The investigation plan contains all the procedural steps, the investigative actions that will be followed by the commission to investigate the case, as well as the circle of persons that will be summoned. Therefore, only after the approval of the investigation plan proposed by the experts, the Commission declares the beginning of the investigations and it is not possible for the chairman of the Investigation Commission to present a ready investigation plan without the experts expressing themselves, according to the procedure defined by the specific law.
In the aforementioned letter, 1/3 of the members of the Investigative Committee of the Assembly for the Public Sterilization Service and the Public Health Check-up Service, unilaterally determined the next meeting of the committee for 04.05.2024, as well as the order of the day, based on article 32.2 of the Rules of the Assembly, which refers to meetings of permanent parliamentary committees, not parliamentary investigative committees.
Based on all the arguments above, there is a need for not only the dates of the next meetings, but also the times of their development, the place of development and the agenda, to be decided with understanding between the parties, in order to have a valid meeting of the investigative commission .
At the same time, we inform you that the experts proposed by us and approved by the Commission have started work and are drawing up an investigation plan, which will then be subject to decision-making in the commission. It would be in accordance with the spirit of the law for the experts of both parties to coordinate with each other to implement a consensual investigation plan. Once the experts have completed the investigation plan, we will request the meeting of the Commission to approve this plan, as the next procedural step provided by law 8891.
We also want to inform you that on the part of the chairman of the Commission, in complete violation of her obligations, no document related to and discussed in the Commission's meetings, including declarations of conflict of interest, has been deposited in the commission's secretariat. , that were so passionately praised publicly at the last meeting. The documentation which is related and discussed in the commission's meetings, must be deposited in its secretariat, to be recognized by our experts and considered as officially administered by the Commission, otherwise that documentation is considered invalid for the effect of the Commission's work.
Finally, we request your attention to stop the practice of using the Commission's logo and protocol, as long as the letter is not a consequence of His decision-making. Only documents approved by decision at the commission meeting appear with the Commission's logo and protocol. The Investigative Commission is neither 1/3, nor 1/2, nor 2/3 of it, but its valid collegial decision-making", says the clarification letter of the SP.
