Based on the new Law on Postal Services from 2017, relevant by-laws need to be drafted and adopted. The PLAC II Project is providing assistance to the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunications in drafting national legislation aligned with the EU acquis and in developing measures for their implementation.
The main new elements of national legislation aligned with the acquis were presented by PLAC II Expert Ms Alessandra Fratini during the workshop “State aid issues in the area of postal services and the implementation of Postal Directive”, organised on 28 March for representatives of the Ministry of Trade, Tourism and Telecommunications, Negotiation Group for Chapter 3, „Pošta Srbije“ other postal operators, as well as the representatives of relevant ministries and the University.
The topics of the workshop included addressing legal and institutional framework, mechanisms for financing of universal postal service, state aid rules in the area of postal services and implications of the alignment on the current system of postal services.
