The Appeal Chamber held on 04.02.2020, at 10:00 h, the public hearing of case (JR) no. 40/2018, dated 18.12.2018, corresponding to the appeal of the Public Commissioner against decision no. 63 dated 06.08.2018 of the Independent Qualification Commission related to the transitional re-evaluation of the assessee Arben Dollapaj.

The Public Commissioner, stating his position with regard to the materials submitted during the previous hearing, held that the acts deposited until this stage of the proceedings, in their entirety, are insufficient to respond to the grounds of the appeal.

The assessee contended that he had no objection with regard to the position of the Public Commissioner, since, even according to him, the responses of the state institutions do not contain evidentiary information in view of the appeal grounds. The assessee was willing to provide additional information in this respect.

Following deliberations, the adjudication panel decided to administer a construction and development permit of a building in Valbona, submitted by the assessee to the purpose of examination of the case.

The adjudication panel decided also to request additional information from the Special Anticorruption Structure with regard to a denunciation to the account of the assessee included by the Public Commissioner in the grounds of the appeal.

In the observance of the time limits that the institutions need to respond formally, the adjudication panel decided to adjourn the next hearing on 25.02.2020, at 11:00 h.

The public hearing shall be held at the premises of the Appeal Chamber, at: Bulevardi “Dëshmorët e Kombit”, nr.3. Tirana.
