The total amount spent on these honoraria was at least 9.6 million dinars. Some commissions, such as those under the Ministry of Information and Telecommunications for internet media, received up to 70,000 dinars for assessing 298 projects, while others, like in Vojvodina, received 50,000 dinars for reviewing 177 projects.

Additionally, 34 decisions did not specify honorarium amounts, and 12 decisions were not published on the Unified Information System (JIS) or the websites of the relevant authorities.
