An extraordinary session of the Montenegrin parliament, which should see adoption of the bill amending the law on general education, has been scheduled for September 2, the Montenegrin prime minister's office told media late Thursday.

In line with the agreement reached between opposition leaders and Prime Minister Igor Luksic, the curriculum should provide teaching in Serbian, as well as compulsory courses in the Serbian language.

A parliament speaker's Collegium session was held Thursday, resulting in a draft of the electoral law that MPs should discuss on September 6.

The opposition has set out the amendments to the law on education and citizenship as the condition for the adoption of the electoral law, and the adoption of the electoral law is the first among the seven conditions the European Commission laid down before Montenegro for the date of EU accession negotiations.

Montenegrin Parliament Speaker and leader of the Social Democratic Party Ranko Krivokapic said Thursday he expected political will and responsibility to European integration would prevail and that the election law would be adopted on September 6.

According to some media, the Social Democratic Party, a minor member of the ruling coalition, is against equating the Serbian and Montenegrin languages in the Montenegrin educational system.

The draft election law has been coordinated at the Thursday session of the Collegium, after having been supported in principle by the Democratic Party of Socialists, Social Democratic Party, New Serb Democracy, the Socialist People's Party, Movement for Changes and Bosniak Party, the MINA news agency has said.
