Sahan Ibrahim The Ministry of Finance is blocking the Communists' tools from personal revenues

AKK chairman Sahan Ibrahimi has accused the Ministry of Finance of blocking the municipalities of their own means, writes Periscopi.

“Bord of the Kosovo Communists Association (AKK) is sought by the Ministry of Finance, Labour and Transfers (MFPT) as soon as I get the transfer of the computers' financial means from increasing its own revenues by 2023. These tools are of the municipalities, and it seems very absurd that the tools of the municipalities are blocked by the central level”, he said.

And we're going to have to do a little less of the 2023 growth rate of personal revenues, which would amount to millions of euros. The municipalities that have exceeded the planning of their own revenues for 2023 have approved this budgetary increase in the respective Communist Frameworks, but, MPPT has not yet carried these inflows and dragged them for no reason at all”, he added.

Ibrahimi stressed that the central level is preventing Kosovo municipalities from proceeding in publishing projects for which those means are destined.

Taking into account that these tools from the growth of the municipality's own revenues for 2023 are destined for capital projects, with this central level of action put into danger municipalities cannot proceed to publish the projects they are destined for. So municipalities, although destined for these capital investments - for improving the lives of citizens - cannot happen because of obstacles caused by the central level. The municipalities are awaiting the carrying of revenues from the growth made by the municipalities themselves. We ask the minister to take concrete legal action on realising the rights of municipalities in the reverse is being overlooked at the expense of the municipalities and therefore at the expense of failing to implement capital projects in the interest of citizens, Ibrahim concluded.
