Member of the Radio and Television Council of Montenegro (RTCG), Bojan Baća reported that he has a monthly income of over 5.000 euros, while Predrag Marsenić owns five properties.

This is stated in their reports on income and assets, which they submitted to the Agency for the Prevention of Corruption.

On June 11, the Parliament of Montenegro elected nine members of the RTCG Council, including Veselin Drljević, Žarko Mirković, Marijana Camović-Veličković, Amina Murić, Milica Špajak, Naod Zorić and Filip Lazović.

The Law on Prevention of Corruption stipulates that a public official is obliged to report income and assets to the Agency within 30 days of appointment. For those who do not do it within the deadline, a fine of up to 2.000 euros is prescribed.

Among the members there are also those who were previously in the Council or in other positions.

Baća reported to the Agency 4.486 euros of basic salary from the University of Gothenburg, and 565 from the Council.

In addition to 20.000 euros in cash, he reported having about 24.900 euros and 5.680 dollars in his accounts.

He is the owner of a 31 square meter apartment and a seven percent share in "Praxis", a company whose activity is consulting.

He did not consent to the inspection of the bank accounts, nor did Špajak and Lazović.

Špajak reported to the Agency that her regular income is less than 243 euros, and that she is repaying a 2.000 euro cash loan in installments of less than 90 euros per month.

Lazović has a regular annual property record from the period when he was a member of the Board of Directors of the Health Insurance Fund (FZO). For most of the last year, he received 200 euros from the Board of Education, half a year for 100 as a member of the Committee for Adult Education of the then Ministry of Education, and his basic salary was 430 euros.

Since 2018, he has been paying back a 10.000 cash loan in installments of 160 euros.

Marsenić has been a member of the Council before the Montenegrin Olympic Committee (COK).

Not counting about 600 euros from the Council, he received 1.715 euros from COK, of which 250 is membership in his Anti-Doping Commission, and the rest is basic salary.

His wife, Biljana Marsenić, works at the "Njegoš" Elementary School in Spuz, where she receives a little more than 660 euros per card.

He is the owner of houses of 40, two houses of 50, 96 and 98 square meters, a smaller part of the house of 72 square meters and a large plot of land, and he inherited most of the property. In addition, he owns two cars from 2005 and 2006, and a pistol from 1986.

Marsenić has 2.000 euros in cash, and he is returning less than 4.000 euros of loans for the energy efficiency of the home and 4.800 euros in installments of 163,9 and 146,2 euros. He gave his consent to inspect the accounts, as did Mirković.

In addition to a pension of 600, he reported that he receives as much as a member of the presidency of the Montenegrin Academy of Sciences and Arts (CANU), and 650 compensation as a prominent creator.

Mirković is the owner of apartments of 50 and 80 square meters that he inherited, and in addition he has a boat from 1990. The member of the Council has 5.000 euros in a current account, and his two children have 5.000 in open-ended savings.
