The Montenegrin parliament postponed until Wednesday the debate on electoral law, which was scheduled for Tuesday. The decision was announced following a meeting between Prime Minister Igor Luksic and opposition leaders. Montenegro: Debate on electoral law postponed Luksic conferred with leader of the Socialist People's Party Srdjan Milic, leader of the New Serbian Democracy Andrija Mandic and leader of the Movement for Changes Nebojsa Medojevic. Following the meeting, Milic told reporters that the debate on electoral law has been postponed so that competent bodies could try once more to find a solution to the issue regarding the name of the school subject in Montenegrin schools, which is the opposition's condition for backing the electoral law. The Democratic Party of Socialists previously refused the opposition's proposition for the linguistic subject in the curriculum for Montenegrin schools to be dubbed mother tongue and literature, which brought into question the opposition's support to the electoral law. A two-third majority in the parliament is necessary for the adoption of the electoral law, but the opposition set equal status for the Serbian and the Montenegrin language in Montenegrin schools as a condition for backing the law.
