As specified in the Committee’s report, it was ascertained that said resignations tendered to the post of MP fall within the situation set out in article 88, paragraph 1, item 2 of the Law on Election of MPs according to which resignation is listed as a reason for the termination of an MP’s term of office before the expiry of the term they were elected for, and therefore, the Committee proposed that the National Assembly note the termination of the abovementioned MPs’ term of office.

By majority vote the Committee members adopted the Report enabling the election of new MPs by having the submitters of the electoral lists allocate terms of office to other candidates.

The Committee then proceeded to consider and adopt the request made by National Assembly Speaker Maja Gojkovic for monthly cost compensation for apartment lease in Belgrade.

The Committee members also adopted the document on the termination of duty of Dragan Blesic as National Assembly Speaker’s chief-of-staff, due to expiry of the term he was appointed for.

In addition, the Committee members authorised the Committee Chairman to make undisputed decisions on the exercise of status/material rights by MPs and officials appointed or elected by the National Assembly.
