ZAGREB, May 11 (Hina) - The settling of areas of special state
concern is one of the most important tasks, because without people
those areas cannot be revived, it was said during a discussion on a
Government's motion on a draft amendment to the law on areas of
special state concern in the Croatian National Sabor's House of
Counties Thursday.
The Upper House unanimously endorsed the draft amendment. In order
for people, primarily the youth, to return and stay, it is necessary
to revive the economy, which can be done by the strengthening of a
small and medium entrepreneurship.
Even though they endorsed the draft law, a part of the
representatives expressed concern that certain regulations of the
law could equalise the rights of victims and the aggressor. The law
read that all areas of special concern are established in order to
remove the consequences of the war, accelerate the return of
residents from those areas, initiate the demographic and economic
development. The rights would be granted to Croatian citizens who
live, have returned or settled in the areas of special state
concern.
According to the bill, the first group of areas of special state
concern would be towns in the Croatian Danube River region,
including the eastern Croatian town of Vukovar.
