The deputy of the Democratic Party, Jorida Tabaku, reacted after the statements of the Prime Minister, Edi Rama, regarding the establishment of the Investigative Commissions requested by the opposition.
Through a post on the "Facebook" social network, Tabaku rejected Rama's claims that the law does not allow the establishment of Investigative Commissions for the issues with which justice is being dealt with, as he added that it is simply a lack of political will to set them up. those.
As for Rama's claims, that the investigative commissions that the opposition wants to set up may fail because, according to him, they are based on rumors, Tabaku said that the majority does not have to worry about this part and let the opposition pay the bill if they fail.
She further added that the DP has always been ready to change the law on Investigative Commissions and that the SP has rejected this change.
"Today we heard a long lecture about the establishment of the Investigative Commissions which the majority has repeatedly prevented, especially after the end of an Investigative Commission like that of the Incinerators, which in fact clearly proved the nature of the socialist government.
The claim most often used by the majority is that these commissions of inquiry cannot be established on the basis of an old law. Although I do not share this opinion, since effective investigation commissions have been set up and have operated precisely on this old law, resulting in effectiveness, as the chairman himself admitted to the majority. The reason why they have been effective is related to the political will to write them to the end even when the majority used procedural acrobatics to close them.
Secondly, after the completion of the work of the investigative commission and after we waited for the majority for 6 months to take the initiative to change the law of investigative commissions on behalf of the parliamentary group, I filed a draft law for these changes on behalf of the DP parliamentary group. Thus, since December 9, 2022 (that is, a year ago) I have submitted a complete package of legal changes to the Assembly of Albania. Where in one of them was precisely the law on investigative commissions.
A draft law worked with a group of experts on these changes, taking the best possible examples and bearing in mind all the problems and issues I have encountered in the direction of the Investigative Commission of Incinerators, but also all the decisions of the Constitutional Court on the establishment of investigative commissions.
Although at the Conference of Presidents in February 2023 it was decided by consensus to establish a joint commission for legal changes in this law with the will of course of the majority, it was postponed for the Greek calendars and was never implemented. Of course, with the permanent alibi that the opposition does not want these changes, when in fact the Democratic Party has proven even in the most difficult days that it was able to send to SPAK a report of such quality that to this day it makes news inside and outside the country.
If today, the Parliament of Albania has a record number of requests for investigative commissions, it is because in no other parliament in the world is the Deputy Prime Minister under international investigation, that two former deputies under the majority logo are today under investigation and with two decisions taken. And it would be difficult for the public to understand the importance of the situation if we did not have the establishment of these commissions.
As for the concern that some commissions may even fail because they were raised on rumors to leave this bill to the opposition. As history shows that in fact the Incinerators were also considered a rumor which actually turned out to be a true rumor.
But apparently they do not want to apply the constitutional right defined as a chance for the opposition; the establishment of investigative commissions. The reports of which may be dismissed by the majority but which may very well win the minds and hearts of the people besides the legal reason of the prosecutors who can prosecute the suspects. Why are they afraid of the justice of public opinion and the new one!
At the end of the day, this is a matter of law enforcement of course, but above all a matter of political will! Does the political will exist to turn the parliament into an arena of debate, arguments and ideas or to use it as a notary whenever the next laws are needed? ", writes Tabaku.
