Preparations for Caretaker Cabinet to Start after Holidays

The preparations for the caretaker cabinet will start after the holidays. Parliament Speaker Talat Xhaferi, who’s been nominated to be the caretaker PM, said on Thursday there was no special procedure regarding the formation.

First, he will resign and his successor, Jovan Mitreski, will be elected, which will be followed by resignations of Ministers and Deputy Ministers.

Regarding the election of a State Election Commission (SEC) member, Xhaferi’s stand is that even if it fails, there is time to schedule a new competition.

“It lasts eight days. Parliament makes a decision for a competition to be scheduled, while a session needs to be held to make a decision,” Xhaferi noted.
