At the third regular session of the National Assembly, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Slovenia, Janez Janša, answered four questions: three were raised by opposition deputies and one came from the coalition side. 
 
Matevž Frangež, a Social Democrats deputy, asked how, based on the measures adopted, Slovenia could be prevented from being caught in the debt spiral, and the leader of the Positive Slovenia deputy group, Jani Möderndorfer, wanted to know how the Government's activities regarding the reduction in the number of employees in state administration bodies are carried out, and Positive Slovenia deputy Roman Jakič was interested in the purpose of the official visit to Germany, which symbolically took place on Europe Day.

 

The leader of the Civic List deputy group, one of the coalition parties, Rihard Braniselj, underlined, within the framework of the questions posed by the deputies, that Slovenia had taken an important step forward in finding a way out of the economic and financial crisis through the recent adoption of the Fiscal Balance Act. Since the coalition parties are aware that this is not enough in itself for Slovenia to overcome the economic and financial crisis, the leader of the Civic List deputy group wanted to know what further measures and reforms are to be proposed by the Slovenian Government in order to enable the state to pave the way towards progress.
