45 MPs voted in favour of the bill, while there were no abstentions.
Previously, all changes submitted by the Democratic Front (DF) to the bill were rejected.
The Assembly hearing resumed after police arrested DF deputies.
This law was rejected by the pro-Serbian opposition, raising concern that this document could lift the Serbian Orthodox Church's right to ownership.
By means of it, data on pre 1918 ownership is provided when Montenegro has joined the Yugoslav Kingdom.
We remember that in the Assembly Chamber, after the adoption of the Religion Freedom Bill, in principle, serious incidents occurred, after which all DF deputies were arrested.
Parliament Speaker Ivan Brajovic said the authors of the incident should take responsibility. According to him, Montenegro will never allow its institutions to stumble. /Kankosova.tv/.
