We also request that the Government explain why the decision to abolish the Office for Cooperation with Civil Society, as well as reduce the existing competencies within the new Ministry, was made through a completely non-transparent process, without adequate consultations with civil society.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One decade after its founding, with the adoption of the Law on Ministries and the establishment of the Ministry for Human and Minority Rights and Social Dialogue, the Office for Cooperation with Civil Society was disbanded as a government service with a coordinating role in ensuring cooperation between the civil sector and all parts of the public sector. Civic Initiatives, together with our civil society colleagues, worked for years to establish the institution of the Office, which was a mechanism for improving cooperation between all ministries and civil society organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although part of the Office&#8217;s responsibilities have been transferred to the new Ministry, <\/span><b>it has not been sufficiently clearly explained to the public why relations with civil society are placed under the auspices of one ministry.<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This <\/span><b>significantly narrows<\/b> <b>the space for constructive cooperation between all public authorities and the civil sector, which, according to the standards of the European Union, should involve much more than a dialogue.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> It remains to be seen how the policy of citizens\u2019 participation in the preparation of regulations will be implemented in the future practice of the Ministry, with respect to the basic principles outlined in the Guidelines on the Inclusion of CSOs in the Regulation Adoption Process. The Office has established standards in this area, and the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lowering<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of these standards will reduce the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">actual <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">impact of CSOs on the quality and content of legal regulations. <\/span><b>Also, within the scope of the new Ministry, there are no competencies related to the collection and publication of information on the public financing of civil society organizations.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> In this way, an important mechanism for controlling the transparency of how these budget allocations are spent has been abolished.<\/span> <b>At the same time, the very important role the Office plays in ensuring citizens\u2019 participation in the preparation of legal regulations by ministries and local governments has been abolished.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even though this was not<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> stipulated <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in the Law on Ministries, we also <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">expect that the Government will ensure that the Ministry of Human Rights and Minority Rights and Social Dialogue<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">takes on<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> every employee from the Office for Cooperation with Civil Society, as is the case with employees from the Ministry of Labour, Employment, Veteran and Social Policy, as well as the Ministry of State Administration and Local Self-Government. Otherwise, the processes the Office is currently participating in or implementing will inevitably be interrupted or slowed down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We would like to take this opportunity to <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">express our gratitude to the Office for Cooperation with Civil Society, which has, since its establishment, despite the constant reduction of its resources and its limited competencies, achieved results in opening state institutions to civil society.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight:
