"It has not failed. The government's plan to make the list public
has only been delayed, probably because of the general political
situation," Pancic told reporters in the government building.
The legal basis for the publication of this and similar lists of
people who had preferential status with regard to the national
budget should have been secured through the urgent adoption of
amendments to the Law on the Protection of Personal Data. The
parliament, however, did not adopt the amendments today, but only
discussed them.
Since the parliament is to be dissolved on Friday, the proposed
amendments may be adopted by the next parliament as early as next
year.
