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.
Protests have also been announced over the draft law. Residents of the Municipality of Poliçan, who oppose its merger with Berat, have announced a rally outside the Parliament Presidency building.
Meanwhile, organizers of the daily protests have called on citizens to gather outside Parliament at 2:00 p.m. to protest during the plenary session, which begins at 3:00 p.m.
The Democratic Party, for its part, has announced a national protest on October 8 against the Socialist Party’s territorial reform proposal.
