Paragraph 8
 

The initiative of the Serbian authorities to adopt a new Law on the Referendum and the People’s Initiative in order to bring the legislation in line with international standards is to be welcomed, as is their wish to revise the previous draft law submitted to the Venice Commission on the basis of the latter’s recommendations. The authorities are aware of the shortcomings of the current law and its possible unconstitutionality. The Venice Commission would like to underline the good cooperation with these authorities.
