Response from the competent authority: "We would like to start by apologising to the\
  \ applicant and her husband for any inconvenience caused by the requirement to provide\
  \ a marriage certificate when arranging health insurance, as the professional who\
  \ dealt with the application should have obtained the information from the official\
  \ records. However, it is true that a request for the information from the register\
  \ had to be sent to the Administrative Unit by the end of July 2011, and as a consequence\
  \ the procedure for arranging health insurance for family members was prolonged\
  \ (during which time the persons could not benefit from health services). To avoid\
  \ this, the persons liable to register usually submitted the extract from the civil\
  \ registry themselves. However, as of August 2011, there is no longer a requirement\
  \ to provide the data from the register, as there is a direct exchange of data with\
  \ the CRP.The Law on Higher Education (Official Journal of the Republic of Slovenia,\
  \ No 119/06 - Official consolidated text, 59/07 - Z\u0160tip, 64/08, 86/09, 62/10\
  \ - ZUPJS, 34/11, 78/11) stipulates that the register of students must be in place\
  \ by 31 December 2011. On the basis of the above, the competent authorities are\
  \ already carrying out the necessary activities for the direct exchange of data\
  \ from the register.In the Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia No.37 of\
  \ 20 May 2011, the Regulation on the forms for reporting data on pension, invalidity,\
  \ health insurance, parental care and unemployment insurance issued by the Ministry\
  \ of Labour, Family and Social Affairs was published, in accordance with which the\
  \ new M forms became applicable as of 1 July 2011.The Regulation on the forms for\
  \ reporting data on pension, invalidity, health, parental care and unemployment\
  \ insurance was published. All applications for registration for insurance from\
  \ 1 July 2011 onwards had to be submitted on the new forms prescribed, as the old\
  \ forms for registration for insurance expired on 3 June 2011.We would like to point\
  \ out in particular that the Institute is already working on changes to the insurance\
  \ of family members, with the aim of simplifying the procedure for registering for\
  \ insurance, communicating changes during the period of insurance, and with regard\
  \ to withdrawal from insurance. The insurance of family members is linked to the\
  \ insurance of the insurance holder, so the insurance relationship of the insurance\
  \ holder is also reflected in the insurance of the family member. In the event of\
  \ a change of the insurance basis by the sponsor, the family member will not be\
  \ required to opt out and re-enrol, the link between the sponsor and the family\
  \ member will remain unchanged as long as the conditions for insurance are in place\
  \ on the part of the family member. Changes are also being made to the use of forms\
  \ for family members' insurance, and withdrawals will only be made on an exceptional\
  \ basis. The simplification of the notification of changes during the insurance\
  \ period is based on the establishment of a link with the official register of students."
