NPM organisational structure, institutional representation and cooperation During 2015, the NPM operated with a multidisciplinary structure consisting of five assistant commissioners, part of the civil service of the Republic of Albania, of whom three legal experts, a psychiatrist and a clinical psychologist. With the amendments made to the Law No. 8454, dated 04.02.1999 “On the Ombudsman”, as amended, it was anticipated that the NPM will be led by a Commissioner, therefore in 2015 the Ombudsman announced several times the vacancy for the position of the Commissioner, but due to the lack of the required number of candidates participating, and failure to meet professional criteria, the selection process of candidates for Commissioner has been impossible to be conducted. Since the beginning of October 2014 until the end of October 2015, the Albanian NPM under the conduct of the Ombudsman, successfully chaired the South East Europe NPM Network, a network established in 2013 on the basis of the South East Europe Declaration of Cooperation, signed by the Ombudsmen of Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Hungary, Greece and Romania.

The second seminar entitled “Challenges, concerns, and the need for common monitoring standards of South-East European mechanisms in the context of Migration” held on 29 October 2015, brought together the legal group of the network. The Conference “Towards common standards for monitoring the treatment of asylum seekers, refugees and illegal immigrants in South East Europe”, held on October 30, 2015 addressed the emergency issue of illegal immigration. All these three international events were attended not only by representatives of the Network, but representatives of the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CPT), the Sub-Committee for the Prevention of Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading (SPT), the Association for the Prevention of Torture (APT), European Agency for the Management of Operational Cooperation of External Borders of the Member States of the European Union (Frontex), the Agency of the United Nations for Refugees (UNHCR), Presence in Albania Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Justice, Department of Border and Migration Directorate General of Prisons, etc. During 2015 the National Preventive Mechanism against Torture closely cooperated with the Committee for Prevention of Torture (CPT) and the Stationed Nations SubCommittee for Prevention of Torture (SPT), the Association for Prevention of Torture (APT) and the OSCE Presence in the countries of the Region to ensure a quality oversight and 6
