SERBS DISSATISFIED WITH PERFORMANCE OF GOVT COMMISSIONERS

ZAGREB, May 14 (Hina) - The Serbian Independent Party (SSS) and the Serbian Democratic Forum (SDF) are to forward an elaborate report to the Croatian President and the president of the Croatian Parliament about the situation of human rights in areas liberated in Croatian military operations "Flash" and "Storm". The president of the SSS, Milorad Pupovac, said that Serbs in Croatia wanted to contribute to the establishment of a legal state in the areas of eastern Slavonia, Banija, Kordun, Lika and northern Dalmatia, but that they "are coming across a wall put up by people who exercise their authority not in the spirit of the law." He stressed that the Serb community had serious difficulties with obtaining personal identification cards, with employment and pensions. SSS and SDF representatives expressed their dissatisfaction with the work of most of the appointed government commissioners for the areas, saying that "they do not perform in line with government regulations", and that they were "for the most part incompetent for the complex and delicate tasks entrusted to them."
