Nezavisne novine: BANJALUKA – Bosnia and Herzegovina is obligated after signing the Stabilization and Association Agreement to harmonise with the legislation of the EU more than 10.000 regulations within six, at the latest eight years.

“In order for a country to become a member of the EU, it has to have completely harmonized legislation with the acquis communautaire of the EU”, said yesterday Slobodanka Dubravac, acting assistant of the minister for economic relations and coordination of the Republic of Srpska.

She added that the Government of the Republic of Srpska last year adopted a decree on the procedure and a manner of harmonization of domestic legislation with the European one, but currently it is about voluntary harmonization of legislation, which becomes obligatory after signing of the Stabilization and Association Agreement.
