National Assembly overrides both state budget-related vetoes

Ljubljana, 2 December - The National Assembly overturned on Monday an upper chamber veto of a bill on the implementation of the 2020-2021 state budgets over what national councillors said was insufficient funding of municipalities. Also overridden was a veto of a bill that envisages a 6.5-euro across-the-board increase in pensions.
