Nezavisne novine: Representatives of political parties and coalitions, and two delegates of minority nations in the Assembly of the Brčko District of BiH, have signed yesterday the post-election political Agreement "Za bolji Brčko distrikt BiH" (For the better Brčko District).
The agreement obligates on an efficient work of the Government and the institutions of the District, as well as on a joint combat of executive and legislative government against all kinds of crime and corruption. It is a part of the accepted obligations of political parties and coalitions from a long process of negotiating after the elections, which has resulted by constituting the Concentration Government of the District.
"For me, this is far from formality and it means more than just lifting up the hands in the Assembly for my choice to a position of the mayor of Brčko. It remains to me to believe that what stands in the document, where neither segment of work of the Government is passed by, from a continuation of the reform of the local public administration close to the needs of citizens to the biggest infrastructural and developmental projects, which are current or planned, will systematically be respected", has been said by mayor, Dragan Pajić.
The agreement has defined a minimum of joint goals and obligations of participants in government and it represents a basis for the Action plan and the Work program of the Government, and by a grade of chairmen of delegate clubs, it should improve its efficiency, especially in the areas where the serious problems and huge omissions for the previous four years have been noticed.
"Those are, before everything else, education, health care and public administration, and generally speaking, before the Government and us there is a long-lasting combat against a very visible crime and corruption, which we face in the District as a consequence in work of the executive government from previous years", has been said by Ratko Stjepanović, chairman of the Club of delegates of SDS-DNS-PDP-SRS in the Brčko’s Assembly.
For his colleague, Šemso Saković, from the Party for BiH, the Agreement is a division of responsibilities in harmonization with the election results of political parties and coalitions and an orientation for a long-term successful functioning of the local government.
Signatories of the Agreement have accepted the initiative of mayor to insert in the final text the obligation of their full consensus for all future nominations to competent positions in executive government.
