According to Minister of Culture and Tourism, Zoran Ljutkov, all identified irregularities and suspicions of misuse of funds have been formally submitted to the relevant judicial bodies.

Speaking on the matter, Ljutkov stated that upon assuming responsibility for the department, the Ministry was obligated to conduct a thorough analysis of the financial situation and document all observed deficiencies. He emphasized the scope of the review, noting, “When you take over a budget of nearly five billion denars, you must know what position you are starting from. Our duty was to conduct a comprehensive audit of what was done.”
The confirmation by Ljutkov indicates that the Ministry is taking steps to address past financial governance issues.
The submission of findings to judicial institutions suggests a formal process of accountability is underway regarding the stewardship of the department’s finances.
