Montenegro’s Prime Minister has indicated the government is open to discussing amendments to proposed labour law reforms. This willingness to “enrich” the proposal, however, is contingent upon its initial approval in a general vote within parliament. The statement was made during a bi-weekly parliamentary debate. The Prime Minister did not detail specific areas for potential amendment, but emphasized the need for the bill to pass its first reading before further negotiation can occur. This suggests a strategic approach, linking further concessions to securing basic legislative support. The government’s position aims to balance responsiveness to concerns with maintaining control over the reform process. The debate is being closely followed for potential impacts on worker rights and economic policy.
