Regulations Issued Under Serbia's New Religion Law

In Serbia on July 26, Religion Minister Milan Radulovic issued regulations implementing the country's recently enacted Religion Law. Forum18 says that the new regulations are inconsistent with provisions of the statute, raising from 75 to 100 the number of members a religious organization needs in order to be registered. The new regulations leave unclear what rights unregistered religious organizations will have.
