It will be acted similarly, kicking off from February, but penalties and consequences are involved pursuant to the law to all those caught under water-theft criminal offense\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Prime Minister Rama addressed some other issues that have aggravated the water sector, such as the over-politicization of the water utilities administration by overloading them with salaries for individuals who exceed the needs of the company for staff and who do not possess the necessary training or professional skills.<\/p>\n<p>Further on, Damian Gjiknuri, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure, stressed the importance of water as a vital element for citizens as well as the infrastructure element, since the provision of water supply requires investments and other components to make it possible, emphasizing the discipline of the citizens to pay the bills and to not misuse water.<\/p>\n<p>Minister Gjiknuri drew attention to municipalities to take the leadership in this process as otherwise it will be very difficult. \u00a0&#8220;<em>The Albanian government will not subsidize and will not invest in those water utilities and in those municipalities that do not take the necessary actions and consider it as a task of the local government<\/em>&#8220;, &#8211; said Minister Gjiknuri.<\/p>\n<p>Continuing, Minister Gjiknuri said that the investments in the sector will be made based on the utility\u2019s performance, so it\u2019s necessary the proper administration of water utilities.\u00a0 &#8220;<em>Otherwise, if these water utilities will be poorly administered, we are preparing the legal framework for these water utilities to be merged and join the most successful utilities, where the Government will have a role in this process<\/em>&#8220;, &#8211; said in his speech Minister Gjiknuri.<\/p>\n<p>At the end, he thanked the director of Lezha Water Supply and Sewerage Company (Lezha WSSC), Zef Maci, for his collaboration and appreciated him for the good advice in regard to the reform. &#8220;<em>As we have good examples here (in Lezha), we have negative ones as well. These serve us to show to other utilities that if there is good will and management, then even this process that is called the hardest one, I\u2019m convinced it will be achieved<\/em>&#8220;, &#8211; closed his speech the minister.<\/p>\n<p>The meeting continued with the speech of Zef Maci, director of Lezha WSSC, who stated that thanks to the serious project co-financed by the Albanian government, Swiss government and German Bank for Development (KfW), as well as with the strong support of Lezha municipality, a strategic and very important project has been implemented which affects 45,000 inhabitants, providing them with 24 hour water supply, seven days a week.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Maci focused on the water reform and the work that Lezha WSSC has done to complete all the legal procedures for the transition of the water schemes of former administrative units to Lezha WSSC.\u00a0 During 2017, have been signed 4,500 new contracts and 4,700 new meters have been installed, and since 1<sup>st<\/sup> of November, the utility has established a dedicated team that has been managing all the necessary procedures, collection of the legal and administrative documents, with the clear objective: the success of the water reform.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion of his speech, director Maci said: &#8220;<em>Actually, this is not our reform but for the people. Those who will benefit by this reform are the citizens while we will take the responsibilities.\u00a0 First of all, we will reform the water utilities and I believe that we\u2019re on the right track.\u00a0 We have reduced water losses and our company has achieved a growth trend over the years in terms of key performance indicators.<\/em>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After the meeting, which addressed as well other issues such as tourism, agro-tourism, infrastructure and energy, the government cabinet made a visit to the premises of the Lezha WSSC, where they highly appraised the investments done and the good administration of the utility.[:]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[:sq] M\u00eb dat\u00eb 12 janar 2018, n\u00eb Lezh\u00eb, u organizua mbledhja e par\u00eb p\u00ebr vitin 2018 e qeveris\u00eb s\u00eb Shqip\u00ebris\u00eb, nd\u00ebrsa dit\u00ebn e nes\u00ebrme u organizua nj\u00eb takim me drejtues<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[207,205,213],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1914","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-national","category-news","category-newsletter"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1914","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1914"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1914\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1914"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1914"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/shukalb.al\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1914"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
