These demands are either entirely private sector. The minister of finance and transfers has established a joint commission between ATK and MEPTINIS officials, and this commission in general that has agreed through that decision has the competence to review these requirements all in real time within 15 days and also report to the finance minister about the entire process of work that is related to considering these requirements for compensation of salaries or rent<1>, she has said.

Companies' suspicions of demands about compensation from this Pako, Murtezaj says there may be fraudulent purposes, but according to him, this option is small.

“The question of the number of new employees, we've come up with comparison data, which over these days we have on verification issues whether we have an inflow of demand that might be for fraudulent purposes, so we don't have any normal growth, but we have an increase if we look at the previous months, that the increase in number of workers in the February report to the month of March is about 700-8 workers, which is in normal conditions. To verify the demands within them, it has not yet been begun to verify by the commission to come up with concrete results whether there is a tendency to manipulate with data from the employer or not. So far it's all in so-called”, he said.
