CRO. PREMIER DESIGNATE TO PRESENT HIS CABINET TO SABOR ON TUESDAY

ZAGREB, July 29 (Hina) - Prime Minister Designate Ivica Racan will on Tuesday present his government and its programme to the Croatian parliament and ask for a vote of confidence in his new cabinet.
ZAGREB, July 29 (Hina) - Prime Minister Designate Ivica Racan will on Tuesday present his government and its programme to the Croatian parliament and ask for a vote of confidence in his new cabinet. #L# The government's priorities to be implemented by the end of 2003, that is the end of the government's term of office, have been set out in 23 points. Amongst them are the continuation of road construction, primarily the Zagreb - Split motor way, the strengthening of financial discipline and the fight against the grey economy, an increase in direct investments and exports, the promotion of small and medium entrepreneurship, continuing reforms in defence, health, the social and pension systems and state administration. Racan will face the Sabor with a proposal to increase his government by one ministry and will present a list of ministers who will replace outgoing Croatian Social Liberal Party members in the government, after this party left the ruling coalition. Premier Designate will ask for a vote of confidence in Ante Simonic as Deputy Prime Minister, Zeljka Antunovic as Minister of Defence, and who will formally stay as Deputy Prime Minister, Ljubo Jurcic, Roland Zuvanic and Gvozden Flego as the Ministers of Economy, Transport and Science respectively. Jurcic and Flego are non- partisan candidates. Racan proposes Gordana Sobol as minister without portfolio as well as being the head of the significantly strengthened Prime Minister's Cabinet. If the Sabor accepts the proposals put forward by the Premier Designate, that will formally put an end to Drazen Budisa's mandate as Racan's deputy as well as to the ministerial term of office of Jozo Rados (Defence), Hrvoje Vojkovic (Economy), Mario Kovac (Transport) and Hrvoje Kraljevic (Science). Budisa, Vojkovic and Kovac held offices in Racan's first government for about three months. The Sabor needs to give 76 of 151 votes for the government to gain its confidence. As 84 MPs expressed their support to the Prime Minister Designate in early July, there should not be any surprises at Tuesday's session. The government will obtain votes from the Social Democratic Party (SDP), Croatian Peasants' Party (HSS), Liberal Party (LS), Croatian People's Party (HNS), MPs from regional parties and minority MPs as well as Independent Liberals who formed a party bench when they recently left the HSLS. Some other HSLS representatives also could show their support depending on their opinions of the Government's programme. The Istrian Democratic Assembly (IDS) deputies and the one MP of Croatian Independent Democratics (HND) announced their support for the government. The extraordinary session of the Sabor convened for July 30 and 31 and August 1, will deal with three other points on the agenda amongst which is a constitutional bill on national minorities.
