„The Municipality of Novi Grad has put all its resources into preventing or suppressing this pandemic. We have one of the better-equipped civil protections and we have provided material and technical support to institutions, the police, the Gerontology Center, and some shopping centers in the form of masks, gloves, and disinfectants,“ said Delalić.

He called on the Civil Protection Headquarters to allow the opening of hairdressing salons while respecting all measures, given that it is not a mass gathering but scheduled appointments. 

„We have many inquiries, and in the Novi Grad area alone there are 300 salons, so if it can be considered to open them, because we have to get haircuts somewhere,“ said Delalić.
