The request of the Club of Delegates of the Bosniak People in the Council of Peoples of the Republika Srpska to determine a violation of the vital national interest in the Decision on the adoption of the Declaration on the closure of the Office of the High Representative in BiH is unacceptable, the Council for the Protection of Vital Interests of the Constitutional Court of the Republika Srpska decided today.
The Council assessed that, considering the content and form of the disputed Declaration, as well as the issues that are treated by it, it follows that this act does not contain legal norms of a general nature, nor does it regulate some relationships in a general legally binding manner, the Constitutional Court of the Republic of Srpska announced.
Bearing in mind that the disputed Declaration expresses the political position of the National Assembly of the Republika Srpska with regard to certain issues of a political nature that are related to the rights and duties of the Republic and other general issues of interest to the citizens of the RS, the Council assessed that the disputed Declaration, neither in content nor in form, has the character of a general legal act.
For this reason, the announcement states, the Council determined that it is not within its jurisdiction to assess the compliance of the contested Declaration with the provisions of the Constitution that protect the vital national interests of the constituent peoples of the Republic of Srpska.
