Bill defining financial aid for children up to 16 years of age adopted

Belgrade, 15 June 2023

At today's session, the government of the Republic of Serbia adopted the Bill on the temporary register of mothers and other persons to whom financial assistance is paid, which defines the issue of payment of RSD 10,000 for each child who is a citizen of Serbia and who was born on or after 21 November 2006.

This legal solution includes children who are now 16 years old, and who last year did not meet the requirements for assistance to young people aged 16 to 29, because they were under 16 at the time.

At the session, the Conclusion on the acceptance of the starting points of the Plan for the development of energy infrastructure and energy efficiency measures for the period up to 2028, with projections up to 2030, was adopted, which defines goals in all areas of energy: electricity production, transmission and distribution network, gas sectors and oil, energy efficiency, as well as the prerequisites for their fulfillment.

Government members adopted the Programme of financial support, measures and activities in the field of preserving and strengthening relations between the Republic of Serbia and the diaspora through support for associations of the diaspora, the region and the home country in 2023, with the aim of preserving the Serbian cultural, ethnic and religious identity among young people from the diaspora and region.

RSD 79 million has been provided for the implementation of this programme, which should encourage young people in the diaspora and the region to return to Serbia through the affirmation and presentation of the country's economic potential.

At the session of the government, the Conclusion was adopted and supplemented, by which the Government decided to build two memorial centers dedicated to the victims of Jasenovac together with Republika Srpska.

Memorial centres will be built in Donja Gradina, as a place of suffering where executions and abuse of detainees and prisoners of the Jasenovac camp were carried out, as well as in Belgrade, the capital of the Republic of Serbia, which would ensure a lasting memory of the victims of genocide and suffering in the Second World War.
