Abstract/Description:

Directive 2014/24/EU was transposed into the Slovenian legal system by the Public Procurement Act adopted by the National Assembly in November 2015 after a lively public debate and after the National Council of the Republic of Slovenia voted for a suspensory veto. The Public Procurement Act entered into force on 1 April 2016. The quality of transposition of Directive 2014/24/EU into the Slovenian legal system is satisfactory. However, the real challenge of Slovenian procurement goes beyond the legislative provisions and is related to gold-plating issues and missed opportunities to address issues which are continuously raised in public debates. In addition, one of the most considerable drawbacks of Slovenian public procurement remains: the lack of clear and settled case law of the National Review Commission, which is mainly a result of the fact that its decisions be the subject of appeal.
