欧盟驻科法治团法证专家仍在等待司法部发出正式邀请信，以便在欧盟驻科法治团新的任务规定生效后继续协助地方当局处理失踪人员案件。7 月底，司法部出人意料地撤销了正在为欧盟驻科法治团法证专家提供技术支助的当地公司的合同延长确认，并决定重新发布招标书。虽然已开展甄选程序，但这导致从 8月初起所有实地工作停止。8 月底，由于合格候选人缺乏兴趣，导致征聘过程冗长，政府任命科索沃法医研究所代理主任担任主任一职。
EULEX forensic experts are still waiting for a formal letter of invitation from the Ministry of Justice to continue assisting the local authorities in dealing with missing persons cases after the new EULEX mandate entered into force. At the end of July, the Ministry of Justice unexpectedly withdrew confirmation of a contract renewal for the local company that was providing technical support in conducting field assessments with EULEX forensic experts, with a decision to republish the tender. While the selection process is still ongoing, this has resulted in the cessation of all field work as from the beginning of August. At the end of August, the acting director was appointed by the government as director of the Institute of Forensic Medicine, following a lengthy recruitment process resulting from a lack of interest from qualified candidates.
