The Speaker of the Republika Srpska National Assembly, Nedeljko Čubrilović, said that the assembly acted in line with the BiH Constitution when it advanced a draft law that would establish an RS High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council (HJPC).
He argued that the RS National Assembly “acted in accordance with law and justice.”
“The High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council of the Republika Srpska existed before until it was abolished in 2002 by the High Representative in BiH and the Law on the High Judicial and Prosecutorial Council at the level of BiH was imposed,” he said.
“In that way, the High Representative took over the powers of the parliament and passed laws for which he had no legitimate and legal right,” he added.
