Објављено:

The Government of Republic of Srpska adopted today during its 3rd session held in Banja Luka the Decision on establishing the monthly amount of the entitlement which unemployed parents of four or more children in the Republic of Srpska shall receive. According to that decision, the net monthly amount of 750.00 shall be paid whereas  tax and other related contributions shall be paid on this income in accordance with the law on contributions. Bearing in mind Article 8 of the Law on Support for Unemployed Parents of Four or More Children in the Republic of Srpska, which was recently adopted by the National Assembly of the Republic of Srpska, it was necessary for the Government of the Republic of Srpska to issue a Decision on setting the monthly amount of money received by unemployed parents of four or more children in Republic of Srpska.

The Government of Republika Srpska passed the Decision on the appointment of the Working Group for creation of the social map, as well as the Decision on the appointment of the Working Group for Demographic Renewal. The Vice President of the Government of Republika Srpska Alen Šeranić heads the Working Group for the preparation of the social map, while the Vice President of the Government of the Republika Srpska Miloš Bukejlović heads the Working Group for Demographic Renewal. Members of the working groups are representatives of line ministries.

The Government of the Republika Srpska passed the Decision on approval of funds for the social care of workers in the amount of BAM 3,355,355.66 for the payment of contributions for pension and disability insurance for 1,141 workers from 36 companies who lost their jobs due to process of bankruptcy or liquidation of companies with which they were employed.

The Government of Republika Srpska adopted the Decree on Amendments and Changes to the Decree on Conditions and Methods of Cash Payment. The reasons for amending this regulation are related to the need to overcome the problems observed over the course of its application in practice and harmonization with other regulations. In view of current economic situation which is characterized by the increase in the inflation rate, it was proposed that permitted amount of cash payment for goods and services, except for payments in wholesale trade, to another business entity shall be be increased from BAM 200 to 500, with the additional specification that the specified amount refers to the payment of goods and services per one invoice.

The Government of the Republic of Srpska approved the Amendments to the Law on Development and Employment Fund of the Republic of Srpska. The reasons for adoption of this law are contained in the need for more intensive support for companies in the Republic of Srpska, given the existing global disturbances in the market. These amendments expand the activities of the Fund for Development and Employment so that in addition to those already prescribed, the Fund also approves loans, issues guarantees, buys and sells existing outstanding receivables or future short-term receivables arising on the basis of contracts for the sale of goods or provision of services, sale and leasing of acquired tangible property that the Fund took over in court proceedings as settlement of claims and sale of claims from placement.

The Government of the Republic of Srpska adopted a new Decision on the assessment of the impact of regulations. Regulatory impact assessment (RIA) is an integral part of the regulatory reform that began in Republic of Srpska in 2006 with the so-called "guillotine of regulations". After the aforementioned reform simplified a significant number of administrative regulations and procedures, first through pilot projects, and later the PUP methodology was introduced permanently with the aim of adopting better quality regulations. However, bearing in mind the fact that the assessment of the impact of regulations is a dynamic process, it was necessary to approach the drafting of a new Decision on impact assessment. In accordance with the new decision, the assessment of the impact of regulations will be carried out not only on drafts and proposals of laws, but also on bylaws, i.e. decrees and regulations which most often elaborate formalities (permits, certificates, decisions...), i.e. administrative procedures. The goal is to prevent as much as possible the introduction of new administrative restrictions for the business community and citizens, that is, to simplify them as much as possible. Important novelties are also the provisions related to the assessment of the impact of regulations that are harmonized with the legal acquis of the European Union, as well as the provision of the obligation to conduct a cost-benefit analysis, the introduction of standard cost models, and ex post analysis.
