Professor of the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Belgrade, Dr. Djuro Matsut, is nominated for a mandate for the composition of the new Serbian government, which is due to be elected by 18 April, when the legal deadline expires, and the majority of the total number of MPs should vote.
Belgrade media reported today that – he will not make statements about plans for the work of the new government until his exposion in parliament, which has not yet been scheduled.

The decision of the President of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, the candidate for prime minister of Serbia to be Matsut, is submitted today to the National Assembly to schedule a special session, envisaged in the Rules of Procedure of Parliament, where the representative will explain the proposal for members of his cabinet and present the program.

When the representative made the presentation and proposes the composition of the new government in front of the MPs, a discussion of the candidate, the program presented and the candidates for members of the Government opens.
After the hearing, the President of the Assembly schedules a day for the vote of the government program and the election of president and members of the Government.

The government is elected if the majority of the total number of MPs voted for its election, ie at least 126.

Following the election of the government, the President and the members of the Government take an oath in front of the lawmakers, which begins the mandate of the new government.

Vucic said in an address yesterday that the new government will be elected to Good Friday.
The Serbian Parliament on March 19 announced the resignation of Prime Minister Milos Vucevic, after which the 30 -day deadline for election of a new government began.

Vucevic resigned on January 28, after attacking students in a blockade in Novi Sad. Unless a new government is elected by midnight, the President of the Republic is obliged to dissolve the Assembly and call elections, which, by law, would be held in early June.
