Appeals

Lawmakers from the parliamentary opposition formulated questions and appeals to the cabinet of ministers and subordinated institutions at the first sitting from the autumn-winter session. Under legislation, the questions and appeals will be answered the next Thursday of the parliament’s sitting or within two weeks, when detailed information is requested.

• The Democratic Party of Moldova has asked the parliament administration to create a special commission in charge with cooperation with representatives of the Supreme Soviet of Transnistria.
• An appeal of parliamentarian Vitalia Pavlicenco invokes some violations committed by energy officials and protection of interests of enterprises controlled by the separatist regime in Tiraspol. In particular, it said that the Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure, National Agency for Energy Regulation (ANRE) and enterprises subordinated to these institutions have admitted the supply of electricity for lower prices to the Ribnita-based metallurgical plant.
• Oleg Serebrian, chairman of the Social Liberal Party, solicited the Foreign and European Integration Ministry to react to a statement of the head of the Transnistrian foreign department, Valeriu Litkai, whom Romanian press reports have quoted as saying that the relations between the unrecognised Transnistrian republic and the United States are better than relations of Moldova with the U.S., motivating that Transnistria-based enterprises fulfil orders for the U.S. Military Department.
• An appeal of Deputy Igor Clipii seeks detailed information why judges were not confirmed in offices in 2003–05, non-confirmation which resulted with reorganisation of tribunals into courts of appeal.
• Deputy Dumitru Ivanov asked the executive to provide information about abuses of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sport, which decided to close up a professional building school in the Chisinau municipality. The executive passed a decision demanding the transmission of the headquarter of the school concerned to the pedagogic college Alexei Mateevici, as the college was expelled from its headquarter in September and the cabinet of ministers transmitted it to the Moldovan Institute of International Relations (IRIM), an institution created and headed by former education minister Valentin Beniuc.
  
  To mention that the executive created IRIM in 2003 with the purpose “to ensure Moldova with high quality staff in international relations sector,” but the annual contingent of students solicited by state-owned budgetary institutions of higher learning, international relations specialty, does not exceed 40 persons, a contigent that the Moldovan State University and other experienced educational institutions can train. In addition, the demand for teachers, staff trained by the Alexei Mateevici college, is much higher, especially in rural areas.
