Gov't to Deal with Targeted Energy Aid and Emergency Medical Service's Reform

Bratislava, March 12 (TASR) - State institutions that collect socio-economic data on individuals and households, as well as companies engaged in energy distribution will provide the Economy Ministry with data serving to assess the level of risk of energy poverty, according to Economy Minister Denisa Sakova-sponsored bill due to be discussed at the Cabinet session on Wednesday. Based on the analysis of these data, it will be possible to set a system for providing targeted energy aid. The ministers should also approve a fast-track legislative procedure for this legislative initiative. A fast-track legislative procedure should also apply to the draft amendment to the law on the emergency medical service. The Health Ministry proposes in it several measures aimed at stabilising the emergency medical service system and ensuring its sustainability and availability of emergency health care. The government will also deal with the Report on Activities of the Chief Border Proxy for 2024. In line with the document, illegal migration across Slovak borders decreased by more than 94 percent last year, and secondary transit migration by 99.9 percent. ko
