The High Inspector of Justice, Mr. Artur Metani, held a work meeting at the High Prosecutorial Council, where he was received by members of the HPC, legal advisors and representatives of the Support Unit of the Council’s Committees.
The focus of the conversation was on addressing the challenges related to institutional communication and further strengthening the synergy of cooperation between the two institutions for an efficient and more sustainable justice system.
Expressing his satisfaction with this meeting, Mr. Metani praised the cooperation so far between the High Inspector of Justice and the High Prosecutorial Council, emphasizing that continuous dialogue remains the key instrument for fulfilling the missions of the two institutions.
“The justice institutions as a whole, but above all the Councils (HJC and HPC) and the HIJ, must speak the same language. In order to help each other and the entire system as a whole, it is essential to show cooperation and synergy in addressing problems. The separation and respect of powers is an important dimension to preserve the integrity and image of institutions. Our institutions are independent, independent even in decision-making, but we must speak the same language of values, transmit the same spirit of values, on which the reform in justice was built and on which the rule of law is based,” said Mr. Metani, among other things.
Part of the discussions were also thematic and institutional inspections, the standardization of discipline in the work of magistrates, as well as the treatment of cases that require emergency intervention. The meeting emphasized the need to create a common standard for the standardization of relations between heads of prosecutors’ offices/courts and magistrates, overcoming issues that the law does not clarify, with professionalism and institutional cooperation.
The members of the High Prosecutorial Council thanked Mr. Metani for his commitment, assessing the relationship between the two institutions as correct and based on respect for the law. They emphasized the importance of continuing this cooperation to maintain public trust and high ethical and professional standards.
This work meeting between HIJ and HPC served to reflect the joint commitment to a transparent and fair justice system.
