Furthermore, the Minister of Health and Social Protection in order to protect the health of the population by the infection caused by COVID-19 approved some other measures.

On 15.03.2020 the Council of Minister approved normative Act No.3 “On taking special administrative measures during the period of infection caused by COVID-19”. Furthermore, on 24 March 2020 the Council of Ministers of Republic of Albania decided state of natural disaster in order to ensure the containment of the spread of COVID-19 virus on the entire territory of Albania. The aim of the decision is to ensure epidemiological safety, restrict the spread of COVID-19 and ensure public health at national level. The Council of Ministers Decision restricted certain fundamental human rights and freedom enshrined in Articles 37, 38, 41, paragraph 4, 49 & 51 of the Constitution of Albania.

Therefore, the Permanent Representation kindly asks that this Note Verbale be considered as notification for the purposes of Article 15 paragraph 3 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms.
