The Croatian Parliament on Wednesday added to the parliamentary agenda a bill to ratify Croatia's European Union accession treaty under fast track procedure. The bill will be discussed by Parliament on Friday.
Parliament Speaker Boris Sprem informed the MPs that the bill would be discussed and voted on on Friday. He also told the deputies that the current session will last until 16 March.
The government on Monday formulated and sent to parliament the bill on the ratification of the Treaty.
Also on Monday, the Constitutional Court decided that the January 22 referendum on Croatia's accession to the European Union, when more than 66 percent of the participating voters voted in favour of EU accession, was held in accordance with the Constitution and relevant laws.
The Constitutional Court said that the deadline for complaints regarding the constitutionality and lawfulness of the referendum expired two days ago, and that it rejected all 22 complaints that were submitted as unfounded.
The Constitutional Court's decision takes effect immediately, and it will be published in the Official Gazette. With its entry into force, the referendum procedure for Croatia's accession to the EU is considered completed.
Croatia signed the Accession Treaty on 9 December 2011.
