The Coalition: Who Proposed the Members of the Commission in Novi Sad?

Belgrade, July 22, 2015 - The Coalition of Journalist and Media Associations demands from the city authorities in Novi Sad to publicly say which were the journalist and media associations that proposed the members of the commission that decided about the procedure of the open competition for the co-financing of media projects from the budget of the City of Novi Sad in 2015.

In view of the results of the competition, we demand that Mayor Vucevic, who signed the decision on appointing the members of the commission, answers which parameters were these members selected against, since not a single of the candidates of our representative associations was chosen, despite the fact that the proposals were submitted on time. The requested answers will perhaps clarify how the funds from the city budget are allocated through the competition, based on which certain associations received funds on four or five grounds.
