The paper reports that the statute adopted by Zvecan municipality last week does not comply with the Constitution of Kosovo and the law on local self-government. The paper has secured a copy of the statute which does not include the insignia of the Republic of Kosovo as required by the law on local self-government. The part of the statute that talks about funding refers to the government of Kosovo as “a neutral government”.
A source in the Ministry for Local Government told the paper that in an effort to avoid extraordinary elections, Zvecan has been asked to change only article 5 and to clearly define the content and form of the emblem of the municipality.
