Daka, invited to Rubikko in Klan Kosova, has, among other things, talked about administrative instruction, which she said has only regulated signature collection procedures and not how the elections would be organised, Klakosova reported.tv.
With the law on general and local elections, the CEC is the only institution that organises elections, but those elections must be decreed by the president of state. In the concrete case, even if 20 percent of signatures are collected then a kind of referendum must be organised, which the CEC currently has no mandate to organise”, Daka said.

The CEC actually has the competence to organise the referendum, but there is no law on the referendum under which” would be organised.
