Igor Mirovic elected President of the Government of Vojvodina – The priority is to draw in investors
In addition to members of the SPP, Mirkovicev's Cabinet will consist of members of the Socialist Party of Serbia (SPS) and the Alliance of Vojvodina Hungarians (AVH).
Shortly before the voting, Mirovic addressed the parliament and thanked those who announced that they would vote to elect him, but also those who said they wouldn't, because, as he said, it was good to hear both sides.
He stated that the results of the new government would be measured by the number of factories opened and new jobs created.
In addressing the Assembly of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina, while laying out the program of the Government of Vojvodina, he said that the main goal of the government would be to draw in foreign and local investors and to direct them to the less developed municipalities of Vojvodina.
The activities of the new Government, according to Mirovic, will be based on ten principles.
He stated that the Provincial Secretariat for Health will be led by Zoran Gojkovic (SPP), Secretariat for High Education and Scientific Research Activity by Zoran Milosevic (SPP), Secretariat for Sports and Youth by Vladimir Batez (SPP), Secretariat for Urbanization and Ecology by Vladimir Galic (SPP), Secretariat for Culture, Public Informing and Religious Communities Relations by Miroslav Statkic (SPP), Secretariat of Finances by Smiljka Jovanovic (SPP), Secretariat for Agriculture, Water Management and Forestry by Vuk Radojevic (SPP).
