Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee

With the Stabilisation and Association Agreement coming into force on 1 September 2013, Serbia has been granted the status of European Union associated country and began fulfilling its new obligations not contained within the Interim Trade Agreement, such as the gradual liberalisation approach to the two parties’ public procurement, approach to the real estate market, protection from discrimination of Serbian citizens legally employed in EU countries, protection from discrimination in the business dealings of companies of the two parties as well as the further harmonisation of the national legislation with EU regulations.

With the Stabilisation and Association Agreement coming into force new joint bodies are established for its implementation at the executive level, and in accordance with article 12 of the Agreement, political dialogue at the parliamentary level shall take place within the framework of the Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee established under Article 125 and consisting of members of the National Assembly and members of the European Parliament. The Committee shall discuss all the aspects of the relations between Serbia and the European Union and all the important political and economic issues in Serbia’s European integration process, with a special focus on the implementation of the Stabilisation and Association Agreement.

The constituting meeting on the European Union-Serbia Stabilisation and Association Parliamentary Committee was held on 15 November 2013 at the National Assembly House in Belgrade. The Committee comprises an equal number of members of the National Assembly and the European Parliament, and, according to the Rules of Procedure adopted at the first meeting, it meets at least twice a year. At the end of every meeting, having discussed all the items on the agenda, the Committee adopts a Declaration and recommendations which are then sent to the Stabilisation and Association Council as well as the institutions of Serbia and the European Union.
