 2001/12/21 23:20 Brcko's Effect on the RS Budget
The strange thing is that the allegations aimed at the District of Brcko originated in the offices of Transparency International for Bosnia and Herzegovina, headed by Boris Divjak, who is also a member of an anti-corruption team formed by the RS president.
Furthermore, the district is paying salaries and all state dues for 70 officials, is paying RS 7 percent of all customs fees charged in Brcko for operational expenses, and is affected by RS institutions' lateness in paying their dues to the district.
It appears that the charges against the district were the result of poor effects of a RS cabinet decision to introduce permits for the import of heating oil.
