The Speaker of the Kosovo Assembly, Albulena Haxhiu, announced that an Ad Hoc Commission had been established to select candidates for four positions on the Board of Radio Television of Kosovo (RTK).

The structure of the vacant positions provides for two members from the Albanian community, one representative of the Serbian community and one member from other non-majority communities.

Haxhiu said the Assembly would work to ensure that the procedure was conducted within the deadlines and openly, describing the completion of the composition of the governing body of the public broadcaster as important.

“As a public broadcaster, RTK must have a complete Board,” Haxhiu declared.

Commenting on today’s plenary session, the Assembly Speaker said that a return to parliamentary debate was being observed in the legislative institution.
