Health minister stays on

Ljubljana, 14 September - Health Minister Milojka Kolar Celarc survived a vote of no confidence after a marathon parliament session in the early hours of Thursday. 23 MPs voted for her dismissal and 42 against. Although MPs were mostly critical of her work, they seem to have agreed that replacing the minister a year before the election is not sensible.
