Yesterday, the Republic of Srpska Government has also adopted a Regulation limiting profit margins for basic foodstuffs, so the market inspection service is fully engaged. Formation of fuel and basic foodstuffs prices remains the focus of the inspection services.

Through its competences, the Market Inspection Service all activities that the lawmakers take in order to protect living standards of the citizens of the Republic of Srpska and consistently take measures that line ministry adopted in order to control the prices.

We appeal to the traders to adhere to prescribed profit margins and avoid the risk of fines, because any violation will be severely fined.
