Completed and amended Administrative Instruction for Supplementing and Amending Administrative Instruction (QRK) No. 13/2022 on the Method and Procedures of Selling and Leasing Seized and Confiscated Movable and Immovable Property. This Instruction regulates the right of the Agency for the Administration of Seized and Confiscated Assets to lease real estate at the stage of sequestration without a public auction, if the real estate is requested by a public institution or state body.
The shortening of the real estate leasing procedures without a public auction in the sequestration phase is done in order to accelerate the transfer of the real estate from the Agency to the use of the public institution that requests it. This is because some assets that have already been seized are located in some strategic points of our territory, specifically in the north of the country. Their use and management by security institutions is of national importance and contributes to the increase of territorial security in general.
22. Appointed ad-hoc Admission Committee for the Senior Management Category: General Director (executive) in the Agency for the Administration of Seized and Confiscated Assets.
