PARIS, Jan 12 (Hina) - A discussion on a draft report on Croatia at
the Council of Europe's Monitoring Committee concluded that
representatives of Croatian opposition parties would be invited to
attend the next committee session, that the discussion would be
held and the report forwarded to the next stage, notwithstanding
their attendance.
The Committee discussion in Paris announced Tuesday morning as a
preliminary exchange of views ended up being held for ten minutes
and focused on procedural issues.
Hina found out from one of the participants that the question of
inviting the opposition representatives and that the report would
be forwarded to further procedure had been concluded and voted on.
The Committee, however, did accept a suggestion by the head of the
Croatian Parliament delegation at the Council of Europe Assembly,
Nikola Obuljen, that the discussion on the report on Croatia should
be postponed.
The date of the next Committee session has not been announced yet.
It is presumed that it could take place during the forthcoming
regular session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of
Europe (which is to begin on January 25).
