"Until now, the process has been guided according to the legal basis that has determined the way of giving the notary's exam, including the appointment of the commission and the definition of the procedures for this purpose. In principle, every citizen of the Republic of Kosovo who has fulfilled the basic prerequisites, from every community has had the constitutional right to be part of the exam, and on this topic there can be no other criteria than what the law has determined," he said. he.
According to Tahir, the only parameters to select someone are those related to the proven competence for which the evaluation committee has reached a conclusion and not affiliation of any kind.
Although there are political names in the published list, Tahiri has denied that this competition is being guided by such a principle.
"Not only is it not our intention, but I believe that under no circumstances politicization and professionalism are not and cannot be related in the case of appointing new notaries. As one of the free legal professions, the notary is a profession that exercises delegated professional power and is clearly defined by the law, therefore it is the exercise of legal authorizations that makes the notary a respected profession and not political influence or connection with politics". he said.
Tahiri has stated that if there are tendencies to compromise this process, he will be the one who will request investigations.
"However, in cases where there is any possible suspicion of any form of abuse that may have occurred, for each circumstance and for each case separately, I will demand a full and uncompromising investigation. The idea behind increasing the number of notaries is to offer services as close as possible to citizens. No one will be able to compromise such a thing", he said.
Through a written answer, he said that there are about 100 vacancies for the position of notary public. There are about 200 candidates in the list of candidates who have passed the written exam.
