Kosovo’s Constitutional Court continues to refuse to free its current office space for the Ombudsperson Institution as per the decision of the Ministry of Local Government and Administration of 2012. The allocation of adequate premises for the Ombudsperson is one of the European Commission’s conditions laid out in Kosovo’s visa liberalization road map. Minister of Local Government and Administration Mahir Yagcilar told Radio Kosova that the optimal solution to this “delicate issue” would be for the Constitutional Court to move out of the building in downtown Pristina and settle in the newly-built Justice Palace in the outskirts of the capital. Officials at the Constitutional Court did not comment on their future actions but Majlinda Sinani Lulaj from the Ombudsperson Institution said they remain hopeful that the Ministry’s decision will be implemented.
