ZAGREB, July 24 (Hina) - The Croatian Government on Friday
confirmed a proposed zoning programme for Croatia.
Zoning, Construction and Housing Minister Marko Sirac said that the
government would give priority for the building of a power plant on
the Adriatic coast to Obrovac, in the hinterland of the central
Adriatic city of Zadar, regardless of whether the plant would be run
on gas or coal.
The proposed programme will be shown to counties and
municipalities, after which the Zoning Advisory Council would
formulate a final zoning proposal to be sent to parliament.
Meanwhile, in accordance with an agreement between the government
and public service unions, the government passed a decision on
increasing the pay of employees on the state budget by 8 per cent.
The government also approved giving housing loans to Croatian war
invalids from the Homeland War, with disability rates of less than
100 per cent, and to members of their families. The 15-year loans,
with a one year grace period, will have annual fixed interest rates
of 2 per cent.
Reconstruction and Development Minister Jure Radic recalled that
complete invalids had received housing grants, while lower
category invalids received loans according to their rate of
disability.
The government approved foreign loans to be taken out by Croatian
Railways (12.8 million German marks for the radio dispatching
system on the Lika line, 40 million Swiss francs in credit for
Eurofim and 60 million marks for reserve parts and equipment) and
more funds for the Croatian Bank for Reconstruction and Development
to give loans to particular firms.
It also accepted a decision on making an agreement with the Belgian
Government which would give a US$830,000 loan for installing a gas
supply system in Vukovar-Srijem County.
