She said technical remarks were made regarding nearly every acquis chapter and "there are four critical remarks" regarding the appointment of politicians to state companies' supervisory boards, the police law, the tax imposed on mobile phone operators, and the delay of the implementation of the law on public bailiffs.
Croatia and the European Commission will discuss all remarks on June 6, at a meeting of the Stabilisation and Association Council, said Pusic.
The remark about the appointment of politicians to state companies' supervisory boards refers to the wish to appoint Economy Minister Radimir Cacic and Finance Minister Slavko Linic to the supervisory board of the oil company INA.
"That refers to one company we all know about and see every day how it fell into serious problems through quite irresponsible behaviour," said Pusic.
"The state has a 44.7 per cent stake in INA and that's a responsibility. It's a topic we have to discuss with the European Commission. We have to state our arguments, but we must get to the bottom of what is going on in INA. The ministers who are responsible for the state budget of HRK 124 billion must be responsible, at least until the situation is cleared up, for state property, because the government is the guardian of the public interest."
The government imposed a measure in January whereby mobile phone operators must continue paying a six per cent fee on their services until July 1, 2013, when Croatia is scheduled to join the EU.
When that tax was imposed, the mobile operators "were told that it's a measure to encourage them to invest, and it will be revoked once an agreement is reached on investing in the modernisation of the network," Pusic said, adding that "we are going towards that solution, which will make it possible to carry out that original agreement."
The police bill has been sent to the Commission and it is expected to take a position soon, while the going into force of the public bailiffs act has been delayed for six months.
Pusic was also asked about relations with Serbia if Tomislav Nikolic's right-wing Serb Progressive Party won the upcoming parliamentary election.
She said she could not talk about that, but that it was in Croatia's interest "to be able to cooperate with any government in Serbia. We hope the parliamentary majority will be such that it will understand that the stability of the region is in everyone's interest and that it is based on cooperation."
