\"Parlament-BiH\"Written by:<\/strong>\u00a0ALMIR TERZI\u0106<\/p>\n

By giving up benefits and privileges like the lump-sum, family visits and accommodation expenses,\u00a0 fees for \u201eseparate life\u201c and mobile phone costs and membership in ad hoc commissions, only the Parliament Assembly of BiH could save up to (according to data from January\/February 2014.) 104.342,53 KM per month or 1.252.110,36 KM annually.<\/p>\n

For this action not any special act of Joint Commission for Administrative Affairs of Parliament Assembly is needed:\u00a0 it’s only needed that every MP independently or in the name of a caucuse, submits a letter to a Department for accounting, by which they waive of benefits,\u00a0 same as they once submitted requests for its use.<\/p>\n

Thereby, the initiatives for decreasing the wages and repealing of fees, that the SDA Club has lately submitted, as well as the one of SDP Club for fixing of wages rate for elected and appointed officials in institutions of BiH, are just distraction of attention.<\/p>\n

Because it is clear there won’t be no drastic reducing of parliamentarians salaries on state level untill there’s article IX, paragraph 2 of BiH’s Constitution which states that \u201eCompensation for persons holding office in the institutions of Bosnia and Herzegovina may not be diminished during an officeholder’s tenure\u201c. The attempt of adoption of amendment on BiH’s Constitution that would cancel this, has not been successful since January 2005., and the declaration about the latest solutions is being postponed to April 2014., with explanation \u201e…providing the fact of ongoing negotiations for Constitution changes with regard to arbitration of European Court for Human Rights in Strasbourg, in case of Sejdi\u0107 \u2013 Finci \u201c.<\/p>\n
