Strategic investments, the term in the Assembly is postponed. Was the number of

As was announced today in the Assembly, the term of the Strategic Investments law was postponed until the end of this year. Amid the noise and chaos, this law passed the session today, receiving 68 votes. It was the opposition that contested the irregular process, simultaneously accusing the government of using the law for clientelism.

The voting process was disputed by the opposition as irregular and lacking a quorum, as only 68 socialist deputies verified the participation in the vote, while the opposition deputies were following the protest with banners and loudspeakers to block the session.

The chairman of the parliamentary group, Gazmend Bardhi, contested the vote, saying that he did not have the necessary quorum, 71 deputies.

However, the leader of the plenary session, the deputy speaker of the Assembly, Ermonela Felaj, said that the participation of the opposition deputies in the hall fulfills the quorum of the work even though they did not participate in the vote.

"We need a simple majority, not an absolute majority in the vote," she said, addressing Bardhi and added that, "the services of the Assembly tell me that there is a quorum."

After the session, Bardhi insisted that none of the legal acts passed in the session can be considered legally approved.

Regarding the extension of the law, he said that "this is related to the genuine interest of a handful of oligarchs and a handful of people, members of organized crime who have received the status of strategic investors".

MP Agron Shehaj called the law related to the personal interests of government members. He told the media that ministers and former ministers have directly benefited from the implementation of this law.

"They have only one goal, to capture everything of value on the coast of Albania to make resorts for themselves and their friends," he said.

The law, which was adopted as a temporary legal measure in 2015, has caused debate and criticism about the way of implementation as well as the circle of beneficiaries. According to economic experts, it favored a group of oligarchs and violated private property, inciting social conflicts.

Decisions approved by the Strategic Investments Committee, headed by Prime Minister Edi Rama, have offered hundreds of hectares of public land to 'strategic investors' through 1 euro lease contracts, ancillary infrastructure; such as supply and adaptation of the electrical network, drinking water supply and other benefits.
