The coalition is unclear about the referenda. Unofficially: will not include them in the referendum on the development law

The ruling coalition in Slovenia remains unclear about whether it will hold three advisory referendums alongside the upcoming constitutional referendum on the Development Intervention Law scheduled for December 6th. The coalition parties initially proposed these additional referendums on topics such as lower VAT on basic food items and energy products, rationalization of public administration, and banning face concealment in public spaces. However, recent days have seen uncertainty about whether all three advisory referendums will proceed on the same date as the main referendum. Coalition ministers have stated that decisions will depend on further discussions and consensus within the coalition. Minister Anže Logar emphasized the need for a detailed discussion on the content of the Development Intervention Law before any final decision is made, while Minister Jernej Vrtovec expressed skepticism about the upcoming referendum, suggesting it might bring more challenges than anticipated.
