TIRANA, May 31 – Tirana’s water supply and sewage company says state institutions are its biggest debtors. In a statement issued this week, the state-owned enterprise says the debt that ministries and municipal units in Tirana owe reaches 330 million lek (3.3 million USD). The debt list is headed by the Ministry of Education and institutions under its authority with 170 million lek, followed by the Ministry of Defense with 31 million lek. Municipal units also owe 10.4 million lek to the water company, which has warned it will cut running water if the debtor institutions don’t pay their bills. The fiscal amnesty law already in force, pardons only drinking water bills for household consumers.
