PLASKI, Oct 2 (Hina) - Representatives of the Lika-Senj County authorities, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Parliament's Immigration Committee on Tuesday attended a conference on the difficulties
of Croat immigrants from north-western Bosnia in Plaski (central Croatia). The meeting focused on substitute accommodation for Bosnian Croats who are currently living in the houses of Serb returnees in Croatia, the inefficiency of courts in solving cases of temporary use of property, employment, and on ways to keep the Croat immigrants in Croatia, particularly those in Plaski, who for months have been announcing an exodus because of their unenviable position. The president of the Association of Croat Immigrants, Tomo Aracic, told Hina the conference had provided no answers to any unsolved issue. He added he had met President Stipe Mesic recently.

authorities, the Organisation for Security and Cooperation in

Tuesday attended a conference on the difficulties of Croat
immigrants from north-western Bosnia in Plaski (central Croatia).
The meeting focused on substitute accommodation for Bosnian Croats
who are currently living in the houses of Serb returnees in Croatia,
the inefficiency of courts in solving cases of temporary use of
property, employment, and on ways to keep the Croat immigrants in
Croatia, particularly those in Plaski, who for months have been

The president of the Association of Croat Immigrants, Tomo Aracic,
told Hina the conference had provided no answers to any unsolved
issue. He added he had met President Stipe Mesic recently.
"We firmly agreed that the accumulated difficulties in the area of
special government concern be removed by starting new production
lines as without economic revival there can be no normalisation of
life nor coexistence among the divided Serbs and Croats," Aracic
stressed.
