Part of the public urges the opposition to "reject" mandates in the Serbian Parliament as a sign of protest against election theft. But that is not possible, says MP Miodrag Gavrilović
The opposition protests daily due to election irregularities. In this light, the issue of whether MPs will accept or reject the mandate, thus "preventing" the constitution of the National Assembly, has appeared in the public these days.
Member of the Democratic Party, Miodrag Gavrilović, explained the process of constituting the National Assembly on the X social network.
In order for the National Assembly to be constituted, it is necessary to confirm the mandate of two-thirds of the deputies.
He further wrote: "Can a member of parliament refuse to confirm the mandate, that is, not accept the mandate?" The answer is: It cannot."
"Is it possible to prevent the confirmation of the mandate of two-thirds of the people's deputies and thus the constitution of the National Assembly? The answer is: It cannot."
The Constitution of the Republic of Serbia, Article 101, stipulates that the National Assembly confirms parliamentary mandates at its first session.
The first session is scheduled no later than 30 days after REC announces the final results. It was scheduled by the president of the National Assembly in the previous convocation, in this case Vladimir Orlić, and the first item on the agenda is the confirmation of the mandate of the people's deputies, Gavrilović explained on the X social network.
Mandates are confirmed only on the basis of the report of the Republic Election Commission. Therefore, the deputy does not have the option to reject it or not to reject it. He can only cease to be a deputy, in which case the seat is taken by the next on the list.
"I don't know why there is so much war about whether someone wants to confirm his mandate or not? No one asks you, it will happen in a sequence of things, it almost looks like automaticity - as soon as the RIK announces the final results, it is realistically impossible to prevent the confirmation of the mandate", stated Gavrilović.
Also, different lists automatically receive money that follows them based on the number of mandates, which is then used for party work.
