The draft law does not take into account this constitutional provision, notwithstanding the requirement that any legislative proposal, should justify the financial expenses for its implementation, which is typical for Albania’s Constitution. Moreover, the citizens’ legislative initiatives, being part of the “non-governmental drafts”, should comply with the requirement set forth in Article 82.  Such requirement would not concern petitions in the sense of Article 48 of the Constitution, but only the “non-governmental drafts” that could be framed on their basis. The Venice Commission and ODIHR recommend introducing provisions implementing Article 82 of the Constitution into the draft.
