"Caretaker government violated law"
The outgoing government led by Vojislav Koštunica, while assuring the public it is authorized to perform technical affairs only, violated the law, given it has no legislative power during its caretaker status.The passing of the Decree doesn’t qualify as a matter of state urgency, which the caretaker government may deal with.
“In other words, the caretaker government cannot pass laws, decrees and ordinances. Therefore, Koštunica’s government overstepped its competences”, the Constitutional Court Judge Svetozar Čiplić explained.
The Constitutional Court has been ineffective since October 2006, when its chairman Slobodan Vučetić took the retirement. Serbian President Boris Tadić proposed a new chairman, but the proposal didn’t make way to the Parliament’s agenda.
“We are now in the situation when we have the unlawful decree but lack the means to declare it null and void”, Čiplić said.
Verica Barać, chairwoman of the Anti-Corruption Council, also finds the decree on allocation of the apartments disputable. She said that the current government shows the same mannerism as the governments from Milošević’s regime.
“This Government has ruled by decrees, which falls under corruption. The government often acts as a legislative body and clings to decrees to extend the law. Since the public is left in the dark, and the decree doesn’t go through the parliamentary procedure, such actions often pass unnoticed”, Barać said.
Former vice Prime Minister Ivana Dulić-Marković criticized her colleagues. She also used the state-owned apartment during her mandate, but returned the keys when she resigned from office.
B92 has been looking into the case of illegitimate allocation of apartments within the Ministry of Capital Investments. B92 got hold of a document stating that Minister Velimir Ilić allocated four apartments to his party members for a temporary use, with the explanatory note saying that the apartments are currently unoccupied.
The Government then passed a decree to allow the ‘keepers’ of the apartments to buy them up.
