All conditions from the Census Agreement, signed with representatives of the opposition parties and councils of the minority nations, are being met, so the process can start on 30 November and everyone should take part in it, noted the Prime Minister, Milojko Spajic, following today’s meeting with the opposition.
“To be precise, as stated in the agreement: we expanded census commissions more than required; we republished the public call for instructors and census takers, the expanded commissions selected census takers by parity; checking the inserted data into the software has been regulated by law and is in line with the census agreement,” the PM said in a statement.
Also, as he says, the decision on establishing the commission for monitoring the census software and its (commission’s) work is determined by law now.
“A parliamentary committee has been set up to monitor the implementation of the agreement. We defined the way of inserting data and respected the deal not to allow the pre-census campaigns by the political parties from the moment of signing the agreements, in order to prevent them from affecting the census results”.
PM Spajic also thanked to “all social actors who contributed to the fulfilment of all conditions”.
