The Centre for International Legal Cooperation (CILC) and the Chamber of Private Enforcement Agents of Kosovo have launched the electronic enforcement management system. This system is said to mark a significant step in the digitalization and increased efficiency of the enforcement system in Kosovo.
Zlaty Mihailova, project director of the “BESP – Strengthening Enforcement in the Balkans” project, stated that this system will enhance transparency.
The Ambassador of the Kingdom of the Netherlands to Kosovo, Karin Boven, said this project represents a strategic investment.
"The overall goal of the project is clear: to strengthen the rule of law in Western Balkan countries in the pre-accession phase to the EU by improving the enforcement of civil court decisions, which is one of the key requirements of Chapter 23 of the EU acquis. This, along with Chapter 24, are areas where we, as the Netherlands, have a special commitment. I am pleased to learn about the three key outcomes this project has delivered: increased accountability of private enforcement agents through enhanced supervision and control mechanisms; strengthened regional and international cooperation in cross-border enforcement; and promotion and localization of the Hague Conference Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Private International Law," she stated."Today we have a functional platform that brings concrete benefits to the entire system. It increases transparency and oversight of enforcement procedures, speeds up case processing, and improves efficiency. It facilitates communication and data exchange between institutions, and most importantly, it strengthens the protection of the rights of citizens and involved parties. The implementation of the EMS has already begun to yield initial results," she said at the launch event.
Meanwhile, Mehdi Reshani, President of the Chamber of Private Enforcement Agents, said the system will ease their work and increase citizens' trust.
