Kostovic said in a brief statement that all ministries had been given special tasks with regard to the forthcoming local elections in the UN-administered areas. The coordination committee defined proposals the government was to present to the UN Transitional Administration and the local population in the Danube river region in order to speed up and successfully complete the peaceful reintegration process, ensuring the termination of the UN mandate on July 15, Kostovic said.
