FEDERAL PARLIAMENT AGAIN FAILS TO PASS LAW ON ABANDONED FLATS

( Editorial: --> 8281 ) SARAJEVO, Mar 9 (Hina) - A law which would make war-time decisions on abandoned houses in the Croat-Muslim Federation of Bosnia- Herzegovina no longer valid failed to be passed Monday once again. Abandoned houses are one of the biggest obstacles to a speedier return of refugees. Today both houses of the federal parliament met in order to finally adjust views on the matter at the request of deputy international High Representative for the implementation of the Dayton peace agreement Hans Schumacher. The law, proposed by the federal government, envisages that all pre-war tenancy rights holders, who abandoned their homes during the war, be guaranteed the possibility to return to them. All persons who subsequently moved into these houses should be provided with alternative accommodation by competent cantonal authorities and financial support of the international community. Party of Democratic Action representative Semiha Borovac proposed an amendment under which war-time decisions on the allocation of abandoned flats would not be automatically proclaimed invalid but "could be rescinded at the party's request". Borovac's proposal was supported at the House of Representatives by a majority vote of her party. According to Mate Franjicevic of the Croatian Democratic Union of BH bench, that amendment would radically change the concept of the whole law and open the "possibility for endless court proceedings which would postpone the refugees' return till the 21st century". The federal parliament's House of Peoples adopted the law in its initial form, as put forward by the federal government, without the amendment. According to provisions of the federal Constitution, both houses of the parliament now have the obligation to adjust differences. Until then the law cannot come into effect. According to the Sarajevo Declaration on the return of refugees, adopted earlier in February, the law on abandoned flats was to become invalid by the beginning of this month.
