100 villages where the "Mountain Package" will focus - Duma: If 500 beneficiary entities are exceeded, the law will be reviewed
The draft law "Mountains Package" was reviewed this Monday in the Committee on Productive Activities for Trade and Environment. But what were some of the questions that were raised in this committee?
Sokol Duma:
"The 100 villages, or disadvantaged mountainous areas, where the "Mountain Package" will be based, and where it will operate, I can say in both. The reason why 100 villages are foreseen is because in our view, for this initiative to be successful, it is not enough to just provide the opportunity for property and its development into economic activity, we also need those investments in infrastructure that enable an activity and a fulfilled life in the social aspect. As for the 500 beneficiaries in the area, why 500, if 500 beneficiary entities are exceeded, the law will be reviewed."
The area will be reviewed, it is not determined if the area is...
Lefter Chestnut:
"This is a law that should have clear criteria. If the number exceeds 500, the law states, time will have priority. Leave room for why they should limit it."
But how will the specifics and criteria that entities must follow be determined?
"The package will have a VKM, which determines all the criteria we are talking about. But on the other hand, the following procedure, from beginning to end, is correct. So the request of the municipality, the VKM, after the VKM is declared as a zone, the right arises for the subjects to be more interested."
Meanwhile, the Albanian government aims, through this draft law, to promote and bring an alternative approach to provide convenience and assistance to the mountain economy, which in recent years has lagged behind that of urban and coastal areas.
