BOSNIAN PARLIAMENT ADOPTS LAW ON PASSPORTS

( Editorial: --> 8633 ) SARAJEVO, Dec 16 (Hina) - The House of Representatives of the Bosnian parliament on Monday adopted a law on passports, but failed to reach agreement on a law on citizenship. The Lower House session stopped shortly before midnight, because the Bosnian Serb side insisted that an invitation to the Bosnian Presidency to conclude bilateral agreements with neighbouring countries as soon as possible should become part of the law on citizenship. These agreements would make dual citizenship possible, but Bosniak-Muslim representatives refused. (hina) ha jn 161237 MET dec 97
