The GAP Institute has published the progress of mayors in fulfilling the promises given in the recent 2017 local elections on display.
The platform has been updated with information summing up data from the beginning of this mandate until December 2019, half the mandate of the current mayors, respectively.
Out of a total of 903 promises recorded by the GAP Institute, by December 2019, municipalities have fulfilled 304 promises, 171 promises result in half fulfillment, 233 promises are beginning to be fulfilled, or there are initiatives in their fulfillment, while 195 promises have not been outlined in their fulfillment.
The areas where there is progress in fulfilling the promises are infrastructure, public services, agriculture and social policies.
Thus, from «all promises given, 339 promises have been given in the field of infrastructure, where up to half of the mandate in this area have been fulfilled 129 promises, in the field of public services 104 promises have been given while 45 promises have been fulfilled, in the area of agriculture as a whole, 46 promises of which 27 have been fulfilled, while in the field of social policies 31 promises have been given and a total of 22 have been fulfilled.
The areas where promises are stuck are education, economic development, health, and culture. In the education field, 126 promises have been given, while only 22, we have recorded 71 promises in the economy as they result in only 13, promises have been given in the field of health while only 12 cultural courses have been fulfilled, and 54 promises have been made that have been fulfilled.
The GAP Institute makes monitoring the fulfillment of promises in 26 municipalities, because some of the current mayors have not conducted election campaigns. The municipalities, such as Skenderaj, Mamusa and the ten municipalities inhabited by the Serb majority, have not unveiled any election programme and provided no concrete promises during the recent local elections.
Through assessment of the election promises, the GAP Institute aims to hold responsible heads of office for the promises made. The assessment of promises is done periodically through co-operation with local organisations.
