When this Opposition party started collecting signatures, the Justice and Public Administration Ministry established that the minimum required number should be 368,446 valid signatures, that is 10% of voters in electoral rolls.
Petrov told a news conference that the party would deliver boxes with the signatures to the national parliament on 24 January.
We will deliver the valid and authentic signatures on 24 January, said Bridge’s MP Marin Miletić.
MP Marija Selak Raspudić said that she expected the referendum to be called.
This opposition party started collecting signatures on 4 December at over 1,200 venues across Croatia, and the two-week deadline for the initiative expired at midnight on 18 December.
In the event that the referendum petition was supported by the required number of signatures, the questions proposed for the referendum could be assessed by the Constitutional Court.
The Bridge party collected signatures for their two referendum petitions: one of them being for the transfer of the powers of the national COVID-19 crisis management team to the parliament, where all the pertaining decisions on the COVID crisis management should be approved by two thirds, and the other one on the abolishment of COVID certificates.
