SARAJEVO, May 25 (FENA) - A session of the House of Representatives of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina began this morning with parliamentary questions to be answered by members of the Council of Ministers of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

After that, the adoption of the agenda will follow, which should include the Bill on Amendments to the Law on Public Procurement, which was proposed by the Council of Ministers of BiH.

Amendments to this legislation are needed because it is one of the 14 priorities set by the European Commission for Bosnia and Herzegovina to obtain a candidate status for membership in the European Union and for further harmonization with EU directives.

At the suggestion of the Democratic Front caucus in the House of Representatives, three pieces of legislation should be considered today, namely the bills on the High Prosecutorial Council of BiH, the High Judicial Council of BiH and the Office of the Disciplinary Prosecutor.

The Speaker of the House, Denis Zvizdić (SDA) proposed amendments to the BiH Criminal Code that should regulate the issue of hate speech after the BiH Council of Ministers did not submit the Bill on Prevention of Hate Speech within 60 days, which was an earlier conclusion of the House of Representatives, that would be in line with the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights, the recommendations and conventions of the Council of Europe, the acquis communautaire and the successful practices of the European Union countries that have regulated this area.

The deputies should also vote on the Proposal of the Decision on the appointment of the Council of the Communications Regulatory Agency of BiH and the appointment of the members of the Management Board of the Public Broadcasting Service of Bosnia and Herzegovina.
