The President of Kosovo, Vjosa Osmani, has set April 15 as the date for holding the constitutive session of the new parliamentary composition resulting from the regular elections of February 9. The President had a deadline of 30 days to announce the date for holding the session. Otherwise, according to the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly of Kosovo, the Parliament would convene on the 30th day.
The constitutive session is prepared by the president of the previous legislature, who five days before the session is held must call a meeting of the leaders of the political parties represented in the Assembly, to prepare an agenda.
The agenda should include the formation of a temporary committee that verifies the quorum and mandates, the swearing in of new deputies, the election of the assembly speaker and deputy speakers, the voting on the report of the aforementioned committee, and the determination of the deputies' seats in the hall, according to political power.
The constitutive session is chaired by the oldest MP, assisted by the youngest MP. The laws do not provide that there can be no debate during the session.
In this session, the deputies take the oath – those who are absent can do so in the following session – and the first party, in this case the Vetëvendosje Movement, proposes the candidate for Speaker of the Assembly.
The vice-presidents, meanwhile, are proposed by one of the largest parties and by the non-majority communities and the Serbian community. The constitutive session, according to the Rules of Procedure of the Assembly, ends with the election of the president and vice-presidents.
According to the results, in the new parliamentary composition, the Vetevendosje Movement will have 48 MPs, the Democratic Party of Kosovo 24, the Democratic League of Kosovo 20, the Serbian List nine, and the Alliance for the Future of Kosovo and the Social Democratic Initiative coalition eight seats.
The distribution of seats in the Assembly means that no party can form the Government alone, which is the next step after the constitutive session. So Kurti's party will be forced to enter a coalition to form the government.
