The Committee decided to forward to the National Assembly a Report stating that the resignation tendered by MP Ivica Toncev falls 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, thus proposing that the National Assembly note the termination of the abovementioned MP’s term of office.

The Committee accepted the proposal of Committee Chairman Dr Aleksandar Martinovic to complete a joint debate on the notifications submitted by the Secretary General and Deputy Secretary General on the reprimands issued to MPs to maintain order at the National Assembly sittings i.e. items 3 through 10 on the agenda.

The Committee members proceeded to interview the candidates for Anti-Corruption Agency Board member.

The Committee Chairman informed the Committee members that the Anti-Corruption Agency Board comprises nine members elected by the National Assembly, one of which is nominated by the Committee on Administrative, Budgetary, Mandate and Immunity Issues. Since Anti-Corruption Agency Board member Zoran Stojiljkovic had tendered a resignation, the conditions have been met to initiate procedures to elect a new Anti-Corruption Agency Board member. The parliamentary groups have nominated two candidates – the Serbian Progressive Party Parliamentary Group nominated Danica Marinkovic and the Serbian Radical Party Parliamentary Group nominated Miodrag Skulic.

Having completed the interviews, the Committee members formulated, by majority vote, a List of Candidates for the election of Anti-Corruption Agency Board member and forwarded it to the National Assembly for consideration and ruling by urgent procedure.
