At the second sitting, held on 20 November, the Poverty Reduction Committee discussed and unanimously adopted the Committee’s Work Plan for the remainder of 2008 and until June 2009.

The Committee members endorsed the proposal to hold sittings at least once a month, and, according to the adopted plan, hold Committee sittings outside of the seat of the National Assembly.

This will happen as soon as the beginning of December, when a study visit to Nis, Doljevac and Leskovac was planned on the occasion of the International Day of Disabled Persons, 3 December. The Committee sitting in Leskovac will be held in the form of a public hearing. On the occasion, the Committee decided to organise the Committee sitting outside of the seat of the National Assembly.

The sitting was chaired by the Committee Chairperson, Snezana Stojanovic-Plavsic.
