In this study the author Bogoljub Milosavljević provides a comprehensive review of the legal framework that governs the security-intelligence system of Serbia, points out the shortcomings of the legal framework, and offers recommendations for their elimination.

BCSP researchers Katarina Djokic and Vladimir Erceg analyze the role of the Parliament in the oversight of those aspects of the security institutions’ work where the corruption risks are particularly prominent: budgeting and management of finance, public procurements, material resources management, human resources management, application of special procedures and measures for secret intelligence gathering.

There are three organisations in Serbia with these responsibilities; the Security-Information Agency (SIA), the Military Security Agency (MSA) and the Military Intelligence Agency (MoI). The SIA is directly subordinated to the government and has the status of a special republic organisation, while both the MSA and MoI are organisational units (administrative bodies) within the Ministry of Defence (MoD) subordinated to the defence minister, and thus also to the government.
