The judicial vetting file will be submitted today to the Speaker of the Assembly of Kosovo, Glauk Konjufca.
This is what the Prime Minister of Kosovo, Albin Kurti, and the Minister of Justice, Albulena Haxhiu, said during a joint media conference on September 4.
"After intensive work, and after consultations with parliamentary groups, today we are submitting to the Assembly of Kosovo the file of vetting documents, including the draft constitutional amendments for vetting, the draft law on vetting, the concept document for vetting and also the explanatory document regarding with the vetting drawn up by the Ministry of Justice", said Haxhiu.
Vetting is a process of re-evaluating the figure of prosecutors and judges and aims at their professional growth, the fight against corruption and the influence of organized crime, politics or other illegal elements in the delivery of justice.
According to Haxhiu, the documents of the file are "in full compliance with the recommendations issued by the Venice Commission".
"The justice reform enables only those who have high moral and professional integrity and who can justify their wealth to remain in the system," she said.
Kurti said that after the conference they will meet Konjufca to deliver this file to him.
The Government of Kosovo, on October 13, had approved the concept document for vetting in justice, through which it is intended to strengthen the rule of law.
Vetting with Constitutional amendments requires two-thirds of the votes of the deputies of the Assembly of Kosovo.
The United States of America had earlier said that Kosovo needs systematic vetting in justice.
Meanwhile, the European Commission had criticized the plan of the Government of Kosovo to carry out a "simultaneous vetting of all prosecutors and judges", saying that this would be a "serious source of concern"./REL
