Summary/Abstract: The project „How much, to which media and related agencies did municipalities in Montenegro pay for their services?” is carried out within the sub-programme Media and democracy of the Centre for Civic Education (CCE) and it aims to contribute to raise awareness on responsible expenditures from the budget of local governments. The specific objective of the project is also to underline the relations between municipalities in Montenegro and media and related subjects through the allocation of financial resources based on the contractual services. In this regard, from mid-July to the beginning of October, through the Free Access to Information Law, the Centre for Civic Education (CCE) collected data concerning the list of all media, public relations agencies, opinion polls agencies and production companies engaged and paid by Montenegrin municipalities during 2011 on the basis of contract services, specialised services or any other ground. Furthermore, the data processing included the amount paid to these entities by the municipalities in 2011 and the type of services for which the amount was paid.
