The head of the Social Democrats deputy group, Miran Potrč, asked the Prime Minister why the Government had not decided to ensure that pensions would be index-linked to net salaries. Deputy Barbara Žgajner Tavš from the Lipa group was interested to know how the Prime Minister saw the development of the Republic of Slovenia in the coming years in the context of the set objective of ‘Slovenia – the country of prosperity’. Matej Lahovnik, head of the Zares group, enquired about the Prime Minister’s position on the proposal to establish a financial police force in Slovenia. The last question was raised by the head of the NSi deputy group, Jožef Horvat, who asked how the Government had tackled the implementation of the decisions of the National Assembly of the Republic of Slovenia relating to issues of the concentration of capital in ‘letterbox companies’ and the concentration of media ownership in connection with the constitutional right to information.
