Dacic says first session of new Serbian parliament next week

Speaking after a meeting with President Aleksandar Vucic, Dacic said that the deadline to form the new parliament is August 4. He said the constitutive session of parliament would be called late this week or early next week.

Dacic headed a delegation of his Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) at the consultations with the President on the naming of a prime minister designate.

The new parliament could not convene to date because voting at a single polling station had to be repeated several times to complete the election process which began on April 3.
