Discussions on the territorial map end — Parliament’s vote on the reform is expected

At 23:35 the discussions in Parliament on the new territorial map ended, while its vote is expected.

On the proposal of the SP Parliamentary Group, a change to the agenda has been requested, removing four interpellations and two draft laws scheduled for this session.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Edi Rama arrived in Parliament at around 23:00, to take part in the vote on the administrative-territorial reform.

The vote takes place after a long parliamentary session, accompanied by debates between the majority and the opposition on the new territorial map.

During the day, the reform has been at the centre of discussions in Parliament, while protests against it have also taken place outside the building.

Rama had earlier also taken part in the meeting of the Socialist Party Parliamentary Group, before the start of the plenary session.
