ZAGREB, Dec 8 (Hina) - Prime Minister Ivo Sanader said on Friday
the government would forward to parliament a draft decision on activating the
Ecological and Fisheries Protection Zone (EFPZ) in the Adriatic Sea after
receiving, on Tuesday or Wednesday, an opinion from the political parties that
attended tonight's meeting at government headquarters.
"We estimate
that parliament could adopt the decision next week", Sanader said after
presenting draft rules on EFPZ activation to President Stjepan Mesic and the
leaders of the majority of parliamentary parties.
Mesic endorsed the
draft decision while the others have a good opinion of it, said
Sanader.
We agreed that the representatives of the parties who
attended the meeting would consult with party bodies by Tuesday or Wednesday,
when the government expects to receive their opinion, said the PM.
"The meeting showed that we can find possibilities of satisfying the common
interest by not affecting the declaration of EFPZ or EU integration."
Sanader declined to speak of the contents of the decision, saying only that it
saw to both of those national interests.
Also present at the meeting
was Parliament Speaker Vladimir Seks and representatives of all parliamentary
parties apart from the Party of the Rights (HSP), the Democratic Centre (DC)
and the HDSSB regional party.
