Rationalization of executive agencies and regulators in Kosovo

June 2019

The reform for rationalization of executive agencies and regulators started in 2015, as part of the reform dialogue in the field of public administration between Kosovo and the European Union.
The policy framework for implementing the rationalization of executive agencies and regulators foresees its completion by the end of 2021. It is expected to affect over 60 institutions, most of which exercise executive functions. Although in terms of designations and formal status, they seem distinct, many of them have a fusion and duplication of competencies among themselves. The lack of clear lines of accountability and weaknesses in their oversight further undermine their functioning. This situation contributes to the lack of a functional public administration in Kosovo.
To contribute to the implementation of this reform, this policy analysis addresses this reform in two dimensions, the context and framework of this reform, and its implementation.
This analysis concludes with the main conclusions and a number of recommendations for the implementation of the reform.

Dixhitalizimi në Suharekë - Gjetjet nga anketa

Me qëllim rritjen e transparencës dhe fuqizimin e zyrtarëve lokalë në përputhje me Reformën e Administratës Publike, përmes anketës së fundit kemi identifikuar sfidat që qytetarët hasin në përdorimin e uebsajtit të komunës. Anketa gjithashtu reflekton nivelin e kënaqësisë së qytetarëve me shërbimet online dhe mënyrat se si do të preferonin të informoheshin për këto shërbime.

Meqenësë projekti synon të rrisë transparencën dhe të fuqizojë zyrtarët në përputhje me Reformën e Administratës Publike duke krijuar një manual për përdorimin e uebsajtit që adreson nevojat e qytetarëve dhe përmirëson qasjen në shërbime, përmes pyetësorit të realizuar, ne kemi arritur të identfikojmë problemet e qytetarëve në përdorimin e website-it të komunës së Suharekës.

SECOND MONITORING REPORT: ENERGY STRATEGY OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOSOVO 2022-2031 (Period 2023)

The Energy Strategy of the Republic of Kosovo was approved by the Assembly of Kosovo on March 8, 2023.

Therefore, PIPS is continuing to monitor the strategy, and this report is the second part of the monitoring report series, covering all outstanding measures of 2022 and 2023, as well as all measures of 2024.
