The House of Representatives, which counts 42 members, is
expected to hold its session in the National Museum building in
Sarajevo in the morning, while the House of Peoples, consisting of
15 members (five from each constituent people), should hold its
session in the Serb-controlled suburb of Lukavica in the afternoon,
said Duncan Bullivant, spokesman for the high international peace
coordinator in Bosnia.
Both houses are to elect their presidents and working bodies,
and the House of Representatives is to confirm the appointment of
the Council of Ministers' members, which will be chaired by Haris
Silajdzic and Boro Bosic.
It was expected that the first session of the Council of
Ministers would be held tomorrow in Lukavica, if the House of
Representatives confirmed its appointment, Bildt's spokesman said.
