As a response to Praxis’ Appeal for Extension of Deadline for Submitting Property Claims to the Kosovo Property Agency, launched on 4th December 2007, Praxis received a letter from the Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Kosovo and Head of UNMIK, Mr Joachim Rücker on 18th January 2008.

In the letter Mr Rücker informed Praxis that, at the time, preparations were under way to convene a meeting of the Supervisory Board of the Kosovo Property Agency, consisting of 5 members, out of whom three are representatives of international community and two are Kosovo residents, who were in the process of being nominated by the Prime Minister of Kosovo. As Mr Rücker stated, once all necessary appointments were made following the formation of the Government of Kosovo, the Board would convene and the issue of a possible re-opening of the claim-intake considered, of which Praxis would be informed.
