Gogu discusses judicial reform and faster court proceedings with Italian counterparts

TIRANA, Nov 11 /ATA/ Justice Minister Toni Gogu held three meetings in Rome with representatives of Italian institutions, focusing on strengthening cooperation between Albania and Italy in the field of justice.

During his visit to the Italian Senate, Gogu met with the Chairman of the Foreign Affairs and Defence Committee, Maurizio Gasparri, whom he thanked for the ratification of the Strategic Cooperation Agreement between the two countries.

The discussions also touched on Italy’s experience in repurposing assets confiscated from organised crime for the benefit of local communities.

Gogu also held talks with Court of Cassation Co-President Stefano Mogini on harmonising judicial practice and digitalising court rulings. He noted that the process is driven by the courts themselves, with support from the Ministry of Justice.

Meanwhile, talks with Ciro Maschio, Chairman of the Justice Committee of the Chamber of Deputies, focused on reforms aimed at shortening judicial proceedings, reducing costs and ensuring faster access to justice for citizens.

“Italy’s experience is valuable in turning these discussions into concrete solutions in Albania as well,” Gogu said in a social media post.
