Hoti-Murat at the Board Commission: Budget fraud and abuser

The Commission had clashes between LDK deputy Avdullah Hoti and Finance Minister Iron Murati.

Hoti, said this report presents a catastrophic management and budget abuse. He described budget management with words, “The government during the time of communism to break its leg and give a stick to keep”.

And it's good to discuss this report today, is the report where the credibility of Government policies is best seen. I'm convinced that the budget report shows a catastrophic management, in three arguments I say this, first if we compare it with the previous governments. 41% of the budget goes to subsidies, 16 % in capital investments. He did not see on the basis of progress realising capital projects. 41% of the budget goes into subsidies, a simple economist knows that with this there is no development, there is survival, this has no future”.

You haven't done anything to capital investments, about 500m euros lack the economy as a result of government labour. Travel wages abroad have grown. Hundreds of millions of euros have not been placed in the report. You lent COSTI when you returned these. The self-invasion of municipalities you've made it whole. This is the catastrophic public finance management I'm mentioning. Do you know how I describe budget management as if that expression during communism, the government during the time of communism broke your leg and gave you a stick to keep it so you managed public finances”, he said.

Murati said no capital investments have been stopped. He accused the Pristina municipality and the Fushe-Kosovo municipality that, according to him, is led by the LDK, which is weaker in realising capital projects.

When capital investments are reportedly stopped, it is not true because as the minister, we have urged the work to accelerate. If we look at the local level, we have the municipality of Pristina and Fushë Kosovo being led by you, which are the weakest in implementing the” projects.

It is for the first time that public companies have fewer employees, in this case Telekom, where each year you have added workers, for the first time this has been changed. You mentioned travel expenses abroad, look at past years, and certainly when you compare them to the year in which the pandemic was, of over 11m euros, this has dropped to 5.2m euros, please don't make such propaganda. You didn't buy weapons”, he said, EO reports.

Hoti said the Ministry of Finance has left no sign of the economy, he has called it the fraudulent Mqirat.

You can't talk like that, son. Leave it to the municipalities, we're discussing you not to the municipalities. It's what this prick is talking about when we talk about military investment. This con man now reasons the decision on subvention for energy, that you didn't report. So I've already reasoned that 41% of the budget you've submitted to subsidies when you want to make Switzerland or Croatia you promised. Marked as you left in the economy, you've got your own municipal income block. Why don't you take them to the bank balance. Ever since you realize when the worst crisis does not raise them for a living. 80 thousand workers have been reduced wages”, he said.

Murati, first presented a report in which, according to him, such as Government, have achieved progress. He has announced that for 2022, there was a budget of 2 billion euros, while spending has been over 2 billion euros and 625m euros.

According to him, concern remains the increase in accounting obligations where the Kosovo Judiciary Council has reached 77m euros from 17 years ago.

The admissions for last year's fiscal year 2022 have been 2 billion, while expenditures have been over 2 billion and 625m euros, which means there are some 3m euros more in the banking balance than the year had begun. So the year had started with 442m euros in banking balance, and it's finished at 445m euros. Here's a huge contribution to the growth of the banking balance has the personal municipal-level revenues that have been collected over the years”.

“As far as the deficit is concerned, the year is closed with a deficit of around 46m euros in deficit. We also have a reduction in unpaid bill bills. Concern remains to increase accounting obligations to the central level, so we have energy growth, which concerns the Kosovo Judicial Council, which has reached 77m euros from 17 years ago. Concern has also been the Fund for health insurance where, because of bills, an audit has been made and an ongoing verification has now emerged that there are many pledges without funds being covered over the years and resulting in higher obligations”.

The local level “notes the Pristina Community, which is also due from 9m euros in the preliminary year, currently at the end of 2022, has an accounting obligation worth 79m euros, and there is economic growth. As far as employment is concerned at the central and local level, we have a reduction of staff from over 81 grand, at the end of 2022 this number is 80 thousand and 86, we have a reduction of 1604. Disturbing is the contract for special services. As for the report that eventually follows an epilogue case in terms of stealing a lot of 2 million euros”.
