Tirana, 22 December (ATA) - "We have met our objectives of first 100 days in governance", said Prime Minister Edi Rama on Sunday 22 December. In his report on 100 days of governance, Rama said that ...foundations of well-governance lay on transparency.
The police, Rama wrote, is assuming real duties. "It is done! Congratulations to Interior Minister Saimir Tahiri and State Police who in less seven days brought again behind bars the seven fugitive ...criminals," Edi Rama said.
"It is important that the Ohrid Agreement is the starting point in Macedonia's internal political process as a way to move forward towards the country's success, which Albania fully supports," said ...Edi Rama. "We should all be calm, reasonable, and aware of the political processes dictated by the times we live in. Each expression of intolerance and violence is a step backwards in these processes. We support Macedonia's EU and NATO integration, and champion the idea that the common future of this region is in united Europe, where borders become irrelevant when it comes to the well-being of all," added Rama.
"This issue requires immediate action, giving priorities to law enforcement, improvement of legal framework, well-functioning of institutions and protection of victims," Edi Rama said. In the context ...of government priorities in the field of order and security, Rama considered important "strengthening of the National Bureau of Investigation, a missing link of coordination between the order and judicial structures in the prevention of this phenomenon".
The reformation of the public administration, Edi Rama said, "is one of the government's priorities as well as one of the five priorities underlined in the Albania progress report 2013 published ...yesterday by the EC."
Prime Minister Edi Rama declared yesterday evening that there would be "no rise in wages and pensions through the use of a sham formula." Describing what the previous government did as "a farce," ...Rama declared in an interview on the A1 Report's Five Questions by Babaramo Programme that "what was done was a farce" and that "we have no inclination to continue it, because what happened in recent years was simply "a sham indexation of inflation."
"I am ready to meet each of them, listen to the opposition's arguments and discuss the matter calmly," PM Edi Rama said in his letter. In his letter, Rama reiterates the parliamentary and governing ...majority's intention of making the civil service law applicable. He added that "also according to European technical assistance the new civil service law is not applicable due to the lack of the necessary regulations."
Prime Minister Edi Rama said that a mechanism to publish all government expenditures online was being finalized. In an interview on Vizion Plus's '7 Without 5' programme, Rama also said that ...ministers would soon begin to hand over their mandates as deputies, but added that this would not be made at the same time. Asked about his refusal to include the PS Socialist Party "senators" in the government, Rama said that every change had been made with their support. Asked about the decision of a PR Republican Party deputy to join the LSI Socialist Movement for Integration, Rama said that at some point "we might have other deputies joining us." "However, you had better ask the right-wing deputies why they are leaving their group," he added.
