The law on the Specialist Chambers and the Specialist Prosecutor’s Office in The Hague is being reviewed by the parliamentary Committee on Legislation, with the aim of moving its approval through the “appropriate procedure.”
Blerta Deliu, a committee member from the Democratic Party of Kosovo, said the meeting was called to review President Justina Shiroka Pula’s decision to return the law to the Assembly.

According to Deliu, PDK has held talks with the Vetëvendosje Movement on how to handle the law. The parties agreed that it should be approved but failed to reach an agreement on changing it.
She explained that they held differing views on the Assembly’s rules of procedure: PDK believed the law could be amended at this stage, while the parliamentary majority considered that this was not allowed.
For that reason, Deliu said, the law should be sent to the Assembly for approval without changes. She said a new process to amend it would begin afterward.
Deliu clarified that the current version of the law will be put to another vote today. She said 61 votes are needed to approve it and override the President’s veto.
