At the first session of the regular autumn meeting of the National Assembly of Serbia, scheduled to take place today, the proposed amendments to the Law on Mining and Geological Research will be discussed.
The proposal for the changes was submitted by 86 MPs, requesting a ban on applied geological research, exploitation, and processing of boron and lithium.
This proposal to amend the Mining Law was signed by MPs from several opposition parliamentary groups, including the Ecological Uprising, the People’s Movement of Serbia, We Are the Power of the People, the NADA coalition, We – The Voice of the People, the Freedom and Justice Party, the Movement of Free Citizens, and others, as well as independent MPs.

This is the second attempt to hold a session on lithium mining. More than a week ago, it was announced that this item would be discussed after the debate on the budget rebalance. However, according to RTS, there was no time for it during the extraordinary session, where the main topic was the budget rebalance.
Danijela Nestorović, an MP from the Ecological Uprising, was selected as the representative of the proposers. The proponents of the law have requested that the amendments be passed in an urgent procedure.
Ana Brnabić, the president of the parliament, stated to RTS that everything is ready for the session and that this is an important topic for citizens who are concerned.
