Session
Law
Description
During these years Albania has experienced numerous political, economic and social developments, which naturally have been accompanied with certain developments in the legal framework. Not only were these initiatives about the adoption of different legal acts, but also about the practice of state institutions themselves in the materialization of the law in general and the constitutional law in particular. The activity of constitutional institutions, especially the constitutional control exercised by the Constitutional Court, during these years has highlighted some of the issues needed to be reviewed by the constitutional lawmaker in the framework of the justice reform. The constitutional amendments of 2016 also affected aspects of the organization, functioning and competencies of this Court which were reflected both in the constitutional provisions and the law on its organization and functioning. The most important amendment in the competencies of the Constitutional Court is related to the individual constitutional appeal, which gives the individual the right to oppose normative acts before the Constitutional Court.

Durres, Albania
During these years Albania has experienced numerous political, economic and social developments, which naturally have been accompanied with certain developments in the legal framework. Not only were these initiatives about the adoption of different legal acts, but also about the practice of state institutions themselves in the materialization of the law in general and the constitutional law in particular. The activity of constitutional institutions, especially the constitutional control exercised by the Constitutional Court, during these years has highlighted some of the issues needed to be reviewed by the constitutional lawmaker in the framework of the justice reform. The constitutional amendments of 2016 also affected aspects of the organization, functioning and competencies of this Court which were reflected both in the constitutional provisions and the law on its organization and functioning. The most important amendment in the competencies of the Constitutional Court is related to the individual constitutional appeal, which gives the individual the right to oppose normative acts before the Constitutional Court.
