A delegate of the Croat caucus in the House of Peoples of the Parliamentary Assembly of Bosnia and Herzegovina Lidija Bradara (HDZ) asked at today's session whether the B&H Council of Ministers sent aid to parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia that were affected by the recent earthquake.

Chairman of the Council of Ministers of B&H Zoran Tegeltija (SNSD) said that the session of the CoM scheduled for today will be decided on the payment of financial assistance to Croatia, and for the municipality of Kostajnica, the hardest hit local community in B&H.

A delegate from the Croat People, Bariša Čolak (HDZ) asked the Minister of Civil Affairs of B&H Ankica Gudeljević (HDZ) at what stage is the procurement process for coronavirus vaccines, to which she replied that B&H is a part of two vaccine procurement mechanisms - Covax and the EU mechanism.

She pointed out that the first batches of vaccines should arrive in B&H at the end of January or the beginning of February, and that the exact date is not yet known.

-Vaccines will arrive through both mechanisms in several allocations, and the competent health institutions will identify the priority categories of the population to receive the vaccine- said Gudeljević.
