Albania’s Constitutional Court will host the Congress of European Constitutional Courts in October 2027, providing a platform for exchanging ideas and initiatives on constitutional justice, Secretary-General Eugen Papandile told a parliamentary committee during discussions on the 2027 draft budget.
Papandile said the event would strengthen Albania’s role in European judicial cooperation and support its European Union integration process. He also reported that the court’s requests and rulings had increased more than fivefold on average between 2021 and 2026.
Meanwhile, the court has requested an additional ALL 30.6 million for 2027 personnel costs, including salaries and social insurance. Papandile said the draft budget did not cover these costs for 13 new positions. He also raised concerns about December salary payments for staff of the Special Appeals Chamber.
Committee rapporteur Evis Kushi said the court’s 2027 budget would fall by 1.52% compared with the revised 2026 budget. The institution plans to increase its staffing from 73 positions in 2026 to 86 in 2027 to meet its growing workload.
