The democratic MP Ina Zhupa has burst into criticism towards RTSH regarding the right to broadcast the Albanian football championship. She accuses the leaders of lack of transparency.
It is about an amount of about 1.2 million euros per year according to preliminary data, and it is not known how this amount was reached, whether it is a budget forecast of the RTSH or as it is talked about a borrowing from the government.

The question marks and the lack of transparency on RTSH's television rights for the broadcast of the Albanian championship that starts today.
On behalf of the Education and Public Media Committee, the committee also responsible for sports, I wish success to the AFL in organizing the Albanian championship and the participating teams, and express the deepest commitment to turn sports into the center of our committee's attention.
Despite the fact that I consider the acquisition of television rights by RTSH as good news, as the television is maintained with the tax money of Albanians, it is necessary to be transparent and clarify some questions regarding the process followed and the costs that are said to be 1.2 million euros per year (3-year contract)
Some questions arise from the lack of transparency and the illegal way of the function of the General Director of RTSH Alfred Peza.
1- Has it been discussed in the Steering Council of RTSH, as required by law, before this offer was made to the FFA?
2- Was the purchase of these rights part of the strategic plan, according to point 7, article 102 of law 97/2013?
3- Regarding the amount, it is said that 1.2 million euros will be paid every year, for a period of 3 years. What is the exact amount and how was this amount arrived at as a proposal?
4-Has the purchase of these rights been part of the budget approved by KDRTSH for the year 2024 according to point 16 of article 102 of law 97/2013?
5- If it complies with the budget forecasts, then why is RTSH requesting additional loans from the government regarding this expenditure? Or have they gone beyond the budget forecasts without asking KDRTSH?
6- According to RTSH information, it is said that the government will cover 2/3 of the payment. Is it true? And on the basis of whose law, rule, decision is required and will this financial action be made?
7- Has the Governing Council considered a loan from the government according to point 17 of article 102 of law 97/2013?
8- Has a business plan been prepared by the marketing department regarding what are expected to be the expectations and benefits from these television rights in terms of advertising and RTSH growth?
According to the information, KDRTSH was not considered for any moment and everything was the personal decision of director Peza, and they were then asked (after the fact) to sign a circular decision regarding the above.
However, these simple questions require answers for the public because it is about Albanians' money and their right to information and transparency.
