The UIHJ involved in the Implementation of the New Enforcement System in Serbia
Through the Balkan Enforcement Reform Project (BERP), the UIHJ was already involved in the drafting of the legislation introducing a new system of enforcement in Serbia. Also once the new law was adopted, the UIHJ remained involved in the country.
On 16-18 May 2012, the recently appointed private enforcement agents received an intensive training on the various aspects of their new profession. The training was funded by the German development organization GIZ and USAID, the American development organization.
During three days the new self-employed enforcement agents were confronted with the different sides of the self-employed profession: legal aspects, management skills but also financial administration and fiscal consequences.
Lectures were given by Serbian judges, professors at law but also by colleagues from the Netherlands (Jos Uitdehaag, first secretary of the UIHJ), Bulgaria (Milen Bazinski and Katilin Popov) and FYROM (Antonio Kostanov, president of the FYROM Chamber of enforcement agents).
