Building

Just to add that the building of the former federal parliament now belongs to the national Assembly of the Republic of serbia, but not all the sessions will take place in it, is has not been decided yet. Some offices are going to be occupied, but only special sessions will take place in the building.

De facto the former federal building is not Parliament of Serbia as the regular sessions will not take place in it. User:BoDU 25 August 2006

How is the Democratic Party in the opposition with the Serbian Radicals? --PaxEquilibrium 16:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Nm. Got it.

131st MP

I can't seem to find this 131st MP that supported/supports the government. Who wrote that at the bottom of the article. --PaxEquilibrium 16:37, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Notes

  • November 2004 - Democratic Party of Serbia (DSS) MP Dragisa Djokovic becomes the first in the long line of turncoats as he switches allegiance from DSS to DS. DSS reacts by taking away his MP status, invoking the contract every one of its MPs, including Djokovic, signed before starting on the job. DSS claims that contract clearly states the party has the right to replace its MPs if they ever decide to leave its ranks. Parliamentary Administrative Commission (Administrativni odbor) agrees. Djokovic and DS do not, and take the issue to Constitutional Court of Serbia and Supreme Court of Serbia.[1] In February 2005, Constitutional Court rejects their motion, allowing the Administrative Commission's decision to stand.[2] The Supreme Court has still not ruled on the issue.
  • February 2005 - Four Serbian Renewal Movement (SPO) MPs, Sanja Cekovic, Stanisa Stanarevic, Milan Ninic and Blagica Kostic leave the, up to that point 22-MP strong, SPO-NS parliamentary club with the intention of forming their own. Since they are 1 MP short they try to persuade either an SPO or an NS MP to join in. When no one takes the offer, the four decide to continue attached to no club. Publicly, they cite lack of commitment to original SPO program ideas by other SPO MPs as their reason for leaving.[3] This drops the SPO-NS club to 18 MPs (9 from SPO, 9 from NS).
  • May 2005 - The nine remaining Serbian Renewal Movement (SPO) MPs leave the party and enter the newly-formed Serbian Democratic Renewal Movement (SDPO). The nine continue to support the government. They also continue as SPO MPs for parliamentary purposes even though they now belonged to a whole new party. The nine (Vojislav Mihailović, Radojle Bukvić, Nikola Jovanović, Radoslav Jović, Tomislav Kitanović, Bogoljub Pejcić, Veroljub Stevanović, Slobodan Zivuckin, and Radovan Teodorović) then rename their club with 9 New Serbia (NS) MPs into 9+9 parliamentary club.
  • May 2005 - Serbian Radical Party (SRS) MP Zivadin Lekic leaves the party and joins Karic's PSS. For official parliamentary purposes he continues as an independent MP, but in essence he becomes Karic's MP even though tycoon and his party didn't take part in elections. This aisle crossing drops SRS club down to 81.[4] Few days later, Lekic states he left the SRS because it didn't sufficiently defend their incarcerated president Vojislav Seselj, but SRS hit back with accusations he was bought off by Bogoljub Karic.
  • August 2005 - After Social Democratic Party (SDP) was expelled from the government following their MPs' refusal to support the proposed pension and oil industry laws which were the sticking point in Serbia's relationship with the IMF, two of their MPs Ljilja Nestorovic and Meho Omerovic stop supporting the government in the parliament. Their third MP Slobodan Lalovic (also the Minister of Labour) continues to support the government and gets to keep his post.
  • September 2005 - Shortly after the SDP episode, ruling coalition led by Koštunica moves to restore its parliamentary support cushion by offering deputy minister posts to 2 Sandžak MPs who were elected on the Democratic Party (DS) list (Esad Dzudzevic and Bajram Omeragic) in return for their support in future voting. The two take the offer but decline the governmental posts, passing them off to different Sandžak people, after DS protests. But DS is still unhappy and wants their MP status revoked too. After Assembly's Administrative Commission (Administrativni odbor) rules in favour of the two staying, DS demonstratively leaves the parliament and takes their case before Constitutional Court of Serbia, Supreme Court of Serbia, as well as Serbia-Montenegro's Court for protection of electoral law.[5]
  • November 2005 - On the eve of the 2006 budget vote, G17 Plus leadership strips two of its MPs, Sovranije Conjagic and Vesna Lalic-Dragovic, of their status using the rights it has within inter-party contract signed by all their MPs that says their release can be invoked at any time the party sees fit. The reason G17 Plus did it in this case is the intention of the two said MPs to vote against the proposed budget. Couple of days later they are replaced even though they applied for independent MP status in the meantime. Assembly's Administrative Commission (Administrativni odbor) and Serbia's Electoral Commission decide to verify their replacement and this issue is now also before courts.
  • October 2004 - SRS MP Branislav Stevanovic abandons the radical list, claiming that the Serb Radicals have abandoned their original ideology and left their leader, Vojislav Seselj, to stand alone at the Hague tribunal. The SRS's list's drops to 80 MPs.
  • December 2005 - Serbian National Assembly sees formation of a new parliamentary club that opposes the government - For European Serbia. It consists of 5 MPs with a rich parliamentary history of aisle-crossing and side-switching:
    • Ljilja Nestorovic and Meho Omerovic from SDP, who used to support the government until August 2005 and whose party since being expelled from the ruling coalition has entered a coalition with Karic's PSS
    • Zivadin Lekic, former SRS member-MP and current independent MP, but PSS party member
    • Slobodan Zivuckin who first split from SPO to enter SDPO in May 2005 now also left SDPO to become an independent. As far as parliamentary club membership goes, before joining this club he used to be in SPO-NS club, as well as its re-engineered version 9+9
    • Blagica Kostic, one of the four SPO MPs who split from SPO-NS club in February 2005
Nestorovic, Omerovic and Lekic already opposed the government while Zivuckin and Kostic supported it, but do not anymore. This drops the number of MPs who support the government to 130 out of 250. It also drops the 9+9 club from 18 to 17 MPs.
  • December 26, 2005 - DSS MP Djordje Cukvas, formally resigns, handing back his MP mandate because he disagrees with personnel changes in his local DSS committee in Zvezdara. DSS delegates 26-year-old Borko Ilic to replace him as the MP.
  • Late March 2006 - Slobodan Zivuckin, another MP with a long history of switching sides does so once again. This time he decides to leave the For European Serbia parliamentary club - dropping it under 5 members and making it disappear in the process. He now again supports the government while staying an independent MP. This increases the number of MPs that support the government to 131.

Minister Slobodan Vuksanovic

I dont get why is this party listed as oposition one, since Vuksanovic is currently minister of education?

Minister Slobodan Vuksanovic is no longer in the Democratic Party if that's what you're alluding at. He's in the Democratic Party of Serbia --PaxEquilibrium 15:58, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

Building

This is the biulding in which many National Assembly sessions are still being held: Some say that this building will serve till autumn, but until that, it's also in use, so it should be mentioned (and pictured) in the article. --89.216.32.178 19:17, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Speakers

A speaker has his term ended upon the constitution of the new assembly, and not election of the new Speaker. For instance, it was Jovan Krkobabić who was the acting Speaker for the interregnum period. --PaxEquilibrium (talk) 20:43, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

The Bosniaks minority parties

I believe there is a factual mistake in the table titled "Parliamentary Groups and Parties", but I don't know how to edit it. The table claims that the BDSS and SPLS parliamentarians are in a "National Minorities Group", when they actually agreed to join the parliamentary group of the G17 Plus [1]. Could someone who knows how to do so please change this mistake? (If it is a mistake)--Andrewginger (talk) 00:04, 14 August 2008 (UTC)

Women in the current Parliament

Hi, as there are an unprecedented number of women in the current Serbian Parliament, I recommend adding a second sentence to the Composition section: "The current Parliament includes 83 women, making up 33 per cent of the total members – an increase from 22 per cent in 2008 that places it 23rd on the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) league table for female representation."[1][2] In the interests of transparency I am declaring that the Government of Serbia is my client. I will post on the COI Noticeboard. Many thanks. Vivj2012 (talk) 13:32, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. bobrayner (talk) 16:59, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
Hi, thanks for getting back – would you mind making the change? Due to the COI I'd prefer not to make it myself. Thanks. Vivj2012 (talk) 11:39, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Hi – would you be happy to make this edit? I've updated the source, filling in proper citation templates, so just has to be pasted across. Many thanks. Vivj2012 (talk) 10:06, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Done. bobrayner (talk) 03:18, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks very much. Vivj2012 (talk) 11:11, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
