65th Sitting of the Committee on Finance, State Budget and Control of Public Spending

At the sitting held on 4 March 2019, the members of the Committee on Finance, State Budget and Control of Public Spending reviewed the Bill on Termination of the Law on the Ratification of the Agreement between the Federal Executive Council of the Assembly of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia and the Government of Malaysia on Avoidance of Double Taxation with respect to Taxes on Income, with Protocol.


The Bill was presented by Dejan Dabetic on behalf of the Ministry of Finance who said that the Agreement, signed in the times of former Yugoslavia, has been implemented by Serbia to date. However, the other contracting side was of the opinion that, in line with its regulations, the Agreement should not be implemented anymore which the Serbian side accepted. The competent ministry had in December 2018 moved to rescind the Agreement starting January 2019, which the Government accepted and the present Bill would now formally inform the public that the Agreement is no longer part of the country’s legal system.

The Committee ruled, by majority of vote, to propose that the National Assembly accept the Bill.

The sitting was chaired by Committee Chairperson Dr Aleksandra Tomic and was attended by the following Committee members and deputy members: Goran Kovacevic, Zoran Bojanic, Momo Colakovic, Dr Milorad Mijatovic, Zoran Despotovic, Veroljub Arsic, Zoltan Pek, Olivera Pesic and Sonja Vlahovic.
