The Constitutional Court will examine the constitutionality of the law on this year's state budget. The court at its session on Wednesday accepted for further proceedings a motion filed by a group of opposition MPs who believe that the adopted law is at odds with the Slovak Constitution and the constitutional law on budgetary responsibility. However, the court did not comply with their proposal to suspend the effect of the law. After the law's approval, the Budgetary Responsibility Council pointed to the fact that without additional changes, the state budget exceeds spending limits and significantly worsens the long-term sustainability of public finances.
