In New Democracy read: What the StKOK bill brings

The article discusses the Slovenian government's proposed law on the establishment of specialized institutions to combat corruption and organized crime. After over a decade of unfulfilled promises and ineffective efforts against high-level corruption and organized crime, the government under Prime Minister Janez Janša has finally prepared a concrete legislative proposal. The bill aims to transform the existing Specialized State Prosecution into a more staffed and focused institution dedicated to pursuing corruption and organized crime. This reform is described as a systemic change and was identified by the new coalition government as a key priority. The article highlights Slovenia's struggles with fragmented responsibilities, limited staffing capacity, and lack of specialization, which led to prolonged investigations and poor inter-institutional cooperation. These issues caused public distrust in the rule of law and equality before the law.
