At the sitting held on 10 December, the Culture and Information Committee considered the Republic of Serbia 2010 Budget Bill – Section 25, Ministry of Culture. The sitting was chaired by Vesna Marjanovic, Committee Chairperson.
Minister of Culture Nebojsa Bradic talked about the Bill stressing that the economic crisis had had negative consequences on culture even though the competent ministry strove to minimize its impact.
