Third Sitting of the Subcommittee for Monitoring the Agricultural Situation in the Marginal - Most Undeveloped Areas in the Republic of Serbia
At the third sitting, held on 29 July, the members of the Subcommittee for Monitoring the Agricultural Situation in the Marginal - Most Undeveloped Areas in the Republic of Serbia discussed the implementation of the Rulebook determining areas with difficult working conditions in agriculture and the implementation of the Law regulating the return of rough grazings and pastures to villages for use.
Following a debate the Subcommittee adopted a conclusion that the Rulebook should include fourth group undeveloped and devastated areas in Serbia falling within the category of marginal – most undeveloped areas.
The Subcommittee went on to discuss the return of rough grazings and pastures to villages for use. The Subcommittee members and Ministry representatives concluded that there are considerable flaws in the Law regulating the return of rough grazings and pastures to villages for use, as well as abuses. Pastures are used for purposes they are not intended for, therefore certain self-governments should be sanctioned for their unconscionable actions. After a discussion on the matter the Subcommittee concluded that the Law regulating the return of rough grazings and pastures to villages for use, unchanged since 1992, should be amended by deleting or putting out of force Article 9.
After consultation with GIZ representative Nenad Gvozdenovic, the Subcommittee members agreed that the topic for the next sitting be land comassation.
The sitting was chaired by Subcommittee Chairman Milija Miletic.
