Asset declarations in Slovenia: who declares and whether it is public

Laws

Who must declare

Persons listed in Article 41, including professional holders of public office, members of the National Council, non-professional mayors and deputy mayors, managerial officials, management and supervisory board members of state-owned enterprises and persons responsible for public procurement, among others. Oštro reported that about 22,000 people are obliged to report.1,2

What is declared

Personal data and offices held, and assets in Slovenia and abroad, including real estate, movable property, bank accounts, cash, shares, securities and debts or loans (Article 42). Most categories are reported only above EUR 10,000.1

How often

Within one month of taking office, within one month of leaving office and again one year after leaving office (Article 41(2)). Changes in assets are reported by 31 January of the following year through an electronic form on the Commission website (Article 43). Procurement officials report assets as at 31 December by 31 January if they took part in a procurement procedure the previous year (Article 41(3)).1

Public access

Only changes in assets of listed officials are published, not full declarations. Under Article 46, changes for National Assembly deputies, the President of the Republic, the Prime Minister, ministers, state secretaries, mayors and deputy mayors, Constitutional Court judges and certain other officials are published on the Commission website within 30 days of receipt, for the term of office plus one year. Data on other declarants is not public information under Article 46(4). Oštro reported that the Commission began publishing this change data in February 2022.1,2

Where to find declarations

Commission for the Prevention of Corruption (Komisija za preprečevanje korupcije, KPK) website.1

Who verifies

Commission for the Prevention of Corruption (Komisija za preprečevanje korupcije). It compares declared data with other data, may require a written explanation of an inconsistency within 15 days, and opens proceedings where assets appear to have grown disproportionately. Supervision can extend to family members (Articles 44a and 44b). Oštro reported in 2023 that one Commission employee oversaw the declarations at that time.1,2

Sanctions in law

If data is not submitted after a request, the Commission may order a salary reduction of ten percent of basic salary for each month after the time limit, not below the minimum wage (Article 44(2)). If a disproportionate increase in assets is not convincingly explained, the Commission refers the matter to the State Prosecutor's Office or the tax authority, and the employing or appointing body must start a procedure on the person's accountability (Article 45).1
