President Laszlo Solyom held his first meeting with the new Justice and Law Enforcement Minister in his office on Tuesday.
Imre Forgacs, who was appointed last December to replace Tibor Draskovics, outlined to the president his objectives as minister for the next months.
His programme focuses on guaranteeing public safety during the general elections coming in the spring and preparations for Hungary’s EU presidency in the first half of 2011.
