Commission members who tried to make Accreditation Agency director by Minister Bytyqi [Bytyqi's] EMRATS]

The ground had already been prepared for the next meeting of the Government of Kosovo to be elected to the post of director of the Kosovo Agency for Accreditation, an education minister's friend, Fatmir Bytyqi, Africa Locke.

But this has been prevented after the assessment of an international monitoring team, contracted by the British Embassy in Pristina, which has proposed to the Kosovo government that the candidate by most points and by a profound margin in the process of selecting director of the Accreditation Agency. i - MA It's Naim Gashi.

Africa Locke, Naim Gashi and Rifat Morina were on the narrow list of candidates' names for director in the Agency.

Loku, received mostly points from the local Commission for the Criterisation.

He is a friend of Minister Fatmir Bytyqi and has close ties with party officials the Social Democrat Initiative, which leads the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MASHT).

The assessment of the local and international Commission, committed by the British, contradicts each other.

British experts had tried to access positions with the local Commission for the Criterisation, but it has been impossible, because the British have praised Gashi at the maximum point, as opposed to the local Commission that had praised Lok to the maximum point.

Periscopi has learned the composition of the local Commission, which chose Lok as the most prepared candidate to be at the helm of the Kosovo Agency for Accreditation, ignoring British recommendations for the appointment of Naim Gashi in this position.

According to Periscop sources, the Commission was made up of Izedin Bytyqi (General Secretary at the Ministry of Labour and Social Peace, head of the Initiative), Veton Firzi (General Secretary at the Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports), Naim Baftiu (General Secretary in the Ministry of Finance), Ejup Fejesa and Fat Golumgiqi.

The newspaper Blic had reported that Locku had powerful support from the education minister, thankful to Bytyqi, and the secretary of this ministry, Ekrem Kastrati, with whom Loku has great perfority and worked together at KKUKU.

Thus, Minister Bytyqi and Secretary Kastracti, together with Deputy Public Administration Minister Sami Hajdaraj, had completely prepared the process for Locke to be elected at the head of the Agency of Discension, but the scenario has been completely marred by British experts engaged in this process, who have launched Gashi as the most competent and professional candidate for the position.

On this issue, British experts, as a implementing partner, have written to you by a letter Friday to Prime Minister Haradinaj and Prime Minister Veselini, through which they have fully explained the process of selecting the director of the Accreditation Agency and the assessment of candidates individually.

Locke has a political background, as head of the AKR branch in Kacanik, then he's gone to other parties.

Currently, he is a teacher at the University of Applied Sciences in Ferizaj, while Naim Gashi is currently a member of the RTK Board and heads the audit Commission in the public broadcaster. Gashi has experience in media, higher public and private education, and is known as an expert on economic issues.

Named in the minister's post, Fatmir Bytyqi had made a decision to sack the board of this Agency, which cost Kosovo except from the European Record for Higher Education. [ Footnote] EQAR.
