From 2000 until 2001 he was Prefect of Vukovar-Syrmia County.[1] Between 2003 and 2008 he was the Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management in the Cabinet of Ivo Sanader I.[1] On January 12, 2008 he was named Minister of Regional Development, Forestry and Water Management in the Cabinet of Ivo Sanader II. In 2010 he became deputy-prime minister of Government of Croatia in the Cabinet of Jadranka Kosor.
