At the sitting held on 7 December the members of the Foreign Affairs Committee considered the Bill on the Confirmation of the Agreement between the Government of the Republic of Serbia and the United Nations Office for Project Services on the opening of a United Nations Office for Project Services in Belgrade, Republic of Serbia.


The Bill was presented by Dr Slavoljub Caric of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Agreement was signed in 2017 with the UNOPS project team which has been a component part of UNDP since 1995.

The projects are financed by bilateral donations and in co-operation with the Government of the Republic of Serbia and support reform processes.

Following a brief debate the Committee members unanimously accepted the Bill.
