Summary/Abstract: The newly adopted Statute fits into the legal frame of the 2006 Constitution. However, Vojvodina will hardly be in the position to fully effectuate the powers transferred to it under the Statute unless it controls all of its resources. Given that the Law on Transfer of Authorities fails to define some crucial questions such as property and finances the actual implementation of the powers the province has been invested with remains to be seen.
