The EU envisages ordering two parliamentary inquiries at the request of part of the coalition

The Slovenian National Assembly (DZ) is expected to order two parliamentary investigations during its October session. One investigation, requested by part of the coalition government including the SDS party and the NSi-SLS-Fokus trio, focuses on alleged influence over state-owned energy companies and the financing of non-charitable NGOs. The second investigation, supported by opposition parties such as Resni.ca and SDS members, aims to examine suspected political abuse of the intelligence agency SOVA and police forces in connection with the 'Black Cube' case, specifically regarding secret recordings of prominent figures and potential interference in recent parliamentary elections. While the opposition has sought these inquiries for months, the coalition previously delayed them pending the outcome of a legislative referendum on parliamentary investigation laws, which was recently rejected. The assembly will debate both matters on Friday, with the investigations considered ordered once the discussion concludes.

Two parliamentary inquiries scheduled to be ordered today at the request of the coalition's work

The Slovenian parliament is scheduled to decide today on two parliamentary investigations requested by members of the governing coalition. The first investigation, proposed by the Slovenian Democratic Party (SDS) along with the alliance of Nova Slovenia (NSi), the Liberal Democrats (SLS), and Focus, examines alleged abuses by the Security Agency (SOVA) and police in connection with the Black Cube affair. The second investigation, which also received signatures from the opposition party Truth (Resnica), focuses on potential influence over electricity companies and the financing of non-governmental organizations. These motions represent a significant procedural step within the legislative body to scrutinize specific institutional conduct and financial flows.
