ZAGREB, Jan 8 (Hina) - The European Parliament (EP) will consider a
new date for a meeting between its delegation and a delegation of
the Croatian parliament next Thursday, EP president Doris Pack's
Office reported on Friday.
The meeting, which was to take place in Dubrovnik, southern
Croatia, on January 20, has been postponed at Croatian parliament
vice president Zarko Domljan's suggestion and in agreement with the
EP delegation.
The postponement was due to the non-participation of Croatian
opposition parties in parliamentary work, the same source said.
The meeting in question is a regular one, and usually takes place
once a year. This year it might not be held at all, Pack's Office
said, due to the engagements of EP members in preparations for
elections for EP's new composition, which will take place in June.
EP sources also pointed out the meeting would be pointless without
the participation of Croatian opposition representatives.
