At its 20th meeting held today, the Committee on Education, Science, Culture and Sports considered the Proposal for the Law on Recognition of Professional Qualifications for Pursuing Regulated Professions, submitted by the Government of Montenegro.

The introductory remarks and explanatory statement for the Proposal for the Law were presented, in her capacity of the authorised representative of the proposer of the act, Ms Edina Dešić, Director General of the Directorate for Labour Market and Employment at the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare.

It was pointed out at the meeting that the proposed law was of great significance, not only because of the adjustment of professions in Montenegro to the European labour market, but also for adjusting the education and higher education systems to the needs of the state and the economy of Montenegro.
