Further work on the Constitutional charter of the future state union of Serbia and Montenegro will be discussed at the meeting.
The Constitutional Commission has temporarily adjourned its work, asking the signatories of the Agreement to state their views of the document and thus resolve the controversial issues.
The Governments of Montenegro and Serbia have drafted their version of the charter text, previously adopted by Serbia's ruling coalition and the leaders of Montenegro`s parties, members of the coalition "Together for Yugoslavia" (ZZJ).
In case the deadline does not get prolonged, the Constitutional charter is expected to be completed by the end of next week, in order to be adopted in the Parliament and then proclaimed by September 15 - states Podgorica daily "Pobjeda".

MIODRAG VUKOVIC ON PASSING OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL CHARTER:
IT IS LEGITIMATE FOR THE GOVERNMENTS TO ADDRESS THEIR PARLIAMENTS

Podgorica – There is a possibility for the governments in Podgorica and Belgrade to present their drafts of the Charter to the republic parliaments for consideration and adoption, in case it fails to pass with the Constitutional commission – member of the Constitutional commission from the Democratic Party of Socialists of Montenegro (DPS) Miodrag Vukovic stated for MINA Agency.
If the Federal parliament would not approve of the charter adopted like that, the European Union would realize who was the one to pull the brakes of Serbia and Montenegro on their way to Europe – Vukovic said.

CONTINUATION OF THE SESSION OF THE WORKING GROUP FOR THE COORDINATION OF THE ELECTION AND MEDIA LAWS
TWO CONTROVERSIAL REGULATIONS

Podgorica – Montenegro`s parliamentary parties are expected today to adopt two controversial regulations of the Law on the nomination of the committee members and representatives.
OSCE representative Hrair Ballian proposed the application of the electoral law that was in effect at the moment of scheduling elections, in case a compromise fails to be reached today. That would mean that the Albanian parties would stay in the Parliament for five mandates, and that the members of the Republic's Electoral Commission (RIK) would remain to be justices.
Montenegro`s parties have previously agreed on the media rules about the presentation of the parties in the electoral campaign.
