The MP Sašo Peče (SNS) asked the PM about the sale of state property in view of the current economic situation in Slovenia, while the head of LDS parliamentary group, Jožef Školč, wanted to know why the government has proposed the National Assembly to pass amendments to the Salary System in the Public Sector Act, the Judicial Service Act, the State Attorney Act and the State Prosecutor Act under an emergency procedure. Milan M. Cvikl (SD) sought to know what the government has done to reduce the harmful consequences of allegedly illegal and corruptive actions at the health, environment and spatial planning, finance and economy ministries. The coalition MP Jože Tanko asked the PM to comment on the recent information about the 7.2% economic growth, placing Slovenia on par with the Asian Tigers and other economically most developed countries.
