Belgrade,
17 July 2009
The Serbian government adopted a report on the implementation of the National EU Integration Programme for the period from April to June 2009, drafted by the government’s EU Integration Office.
According to the statement issued by the EU Integration Office, the government has adopted 10 bills out of the proposed 13. In the same period parliament adopted 42 laws.
Considerable progress concerning the government and parliament’s work in meeting the EU integration criteria has been recorded.
The Ministry of Health has adopted 4 laws and the Ministry of Science and Technological Development 2 laws.
The Ministry of Finance has managed to adopt a total of 6 laws, of which 5 were not planned but were late additions, as well as a bill on obligatory traffic insurance, left over from a previous period. The government has not passed any by-laws in the period from April to June. As for the obligations left behind from a previous period, the government has passed 10 out of 26 laws and is planning to adopt another 11 by the end of this year. One of the remaining laws does not have to be harmonised with EU legislation.
The government had planned to adopt 104 bills between July 2008 and June 2009, and succeeded in passing 92, that is, 88%. In the same period parliament adopted 67 laws, which means its efficiency was 73%. As for the number of laws adopted, the National Programme achieved 64%.
Taking into consideration all laws and by-laws, the National Integration Programme's efficiency in the abovementioned period stands at 70%.
The next report will refer to the period July–September 2009 and will be presented in October. In this period the government and parliament are to adopt a large number of laws and by-laws.
The National Integration Programme is a detailed plan of the ways to fulfil all the criteria needed for the state’s EU accession, from major political and economic ones to the smallest details of EU trade, agriculture, environmental protection and infrastructure.
The Programme’s goal is to enable state institutions to keep up with their own progress in EU accession, says the statement, adding that this second quarterly report includes the government and parliament’s legislative activities in the period January–March 2009.
