Parliament will hold a series of parliamentary committee meetings on October 5, ahead of the plenary session scheduled to begin at 3:00 p.m.

At the center of attention is the draft law “On the Administrative-Territorial Division of Local Government Units in the Republic of Albania,” which will be discussed and voted on in principle, article by article, and as a whole by the Committee on Legal Affairs and Public Administration at 11:00 a.m.
