At the sitting held on 18 December, the Culture and Information Committee ascertained a Candidate List for the Election of a Member of the Council of the Republic Broadcasting Agency based on the nominations made by associations of broadcasting media, journalists’ associations, professional associations of film and drama artists and associations of composers, in the Republic of Serbia.

The Committee considered the submitted nominations and noted that the authorised submitters have failed to adjust the list to the Broadcasting Act even in the 15-day extension of the deadline, because instead of two they had nominated three candidates. The journalists’ associations nominated Gordana Susa and Branko Zujovic, and the professional associations of film and drama artists and associations of composers Bozidar Zecevic.

The Committee members voted journalist Gordana Susa, nominated by the Independent Association of Journalist of Serbia and the Association of Journalist of Vojvodina, and director and playwright Bozidar Zecevic, nominated by the professional associations of film and drama artists and associations of composers, onto the candidate list for RBA Council member.

The Committee concluded to submit said candidate list to the National Assembly for adoption as the conditions have been met for the election of an RBA Council member from the ranks of associations of broadcasting media, journalists’ associations, professional associations of film and drama artists and associations of composers, for a six-year term.

The Committee sitting was chaired by the Committee Chairperson, Vesna Marjanovic.
