The Law on the Courts of Bosnia and Herzegovina will be included in the agenda of the session of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina, which will be held on Tuesday, March 12. This was one of the three conditions that BiH needs to fulfill in order to receive approval from the EU to start membership negotiations.
As the leaders of the coalition parties that make up the government at the BiH level said earlier, working groups have been working on legal solutions following the last meeting in Mostar. However, it remains unknown whether an agreement has been reached where the Appellate Division of the Court of BiH will be located. SNSD leader Milorad Dodik wants it to be in Banja Luka.
BiH previously started negotiations with Frontex, and the Law on Prevention of Conflict of Interest in BiH Institutions and the Law on Prevention of Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorist Activities were also adopted, which were also conditions for opening negotiations.
If the Council of Ministers of BiH adopts this law, it will be sent to the parliamentary procedure. It needs to be adopted by both chambers in Parliament in order for it to enter into force.
BiH CoM Chair sends letter to EU Enlargement Commissioner
BiH Council of Ministers Chair Borjana Kristo sent a letter and information to EU Enlargement Commissioner Oliver Varhelyi with an overview of the key reforms that have been implemented in the last year, as well as those that are being intensively worked on and are in the final phase.
“In the firm belief that, based on the above-mentioned achieved results, we have achieved an appropriate level of compliance with European criteria, I am sending you attached Information with an overview of the key reforms that have been carried out in the last year, as well as those that we are working on intensively and which are in the final phase. The activities we have achieved are the result of our comprehensive and dedicated work, as well as the cooperation of competent institutions at all levels of government. These achieved goals, although they are only a part of a wider range of activities that we have carried out, are of vital importance for our next step towards membership in the European Union. With every step we strengthen the foundations of our future integration into the European family. We remain firmly committed to the fulfillment of key priorities and the implementation of reform processes,” Kristo wrote.
She informed him that at the upcoming session of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina, there will be several documents key to fulfilling the reform obligations of our country, including the Law on the Court of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
She noted that all these processes require the daily commitment, cooperation and determination of all political representatives, which is clearly visible, and all in order to ensure that Bosnia and Herzegovina realizes its full potential and becomes a stable, prosperous and functional state, a full member of the European Union. In this atmosphere, she emphasized once again that everyone in Bosnia and Herzegovina expects a positive decision by the European Council on the opening of negotiations with our country this month.
