"Citizen's Voice e-Petition" platform is active again

Published on: Apr 2, 2019 • 5:33 PM Author: PR Service
Podgorica, Montenegro (2 April 2019) -- The "Citizen's Voice e-Petition" platform is active again. From today citizens of Montenegro can submit petitions for initiatives within the competence of the Government of Montenegro, with 3 000 signatures collected instead of 6 000 signatures previously required.

In late December 2018, the Ministry of Public Administration, recognising the importance of civic electronic initiatives at the state level, initiated the necessary activities in order to create technical conditions for activating the portal.

Taking into account NGO proposals to reduce the number of voices to accept the petition, the Government reduced the number of votes required from 6,000 to 3,000.

In line with the Open Government Partnership Action Plan, the Ministry of Public Administration, in 2019, plans to improve the technical development of the portal, as well as the extension to the local government units, in order to create conditions for submitting all petitions that may be of interest to the citizens.

The "Citizens' Voice- ePetition" was launched in 2012 with a view to increasing the transparency of the work of the Government of Montenegro, i.e., realisation of civic initiatives, through a democratic model of submitting electronic petitions.
