In his statement, the Prime Minister reiterated that "the decision to attend this meeting every month is good, because I think that right now the right decisions need to be taken in a very short time." The Prime Minister’s answer to the question of what reorganisation can be expected was: "I do not wish to make any statements now, as we are committed to the discretion of social dialogue. If we want to be fair to the trade unions and other interested parties, we have to give everyone the chance to thoroughly review the study." Concluding his statement, the Prime Minister repeated that the Slovenian Railways Company is not the only area "where I will do the same as I have decided to do in this case."
