Response from the competent authority: We have received your request for an initiative
  on a proposal to administratively ease or simplify recruitment procedures and to
  reduce the unemployment rate as a result of the new recruitment method described
  above. Accordingly, we are enclosing below our joint position on the two proposals
  received. Overall, we consider the proposal to be well-intentioned, and the idea
  of the proposer itself is also appealing (as it contains, among other things, elements
  of fairness that have been missing in the public discourse recently), but its implementation
  in practice would not only require changes to a considerable number of regulations,
  but also the abolition of old ones and the creation of new systems for the enforcement
  and protection of rights in the field of labour and social legislation and (at least)
  legislation on taxation, compulsory social insurance, compulsory education and companies.
  Just to implement the proposals, which are largely within the remit of the Ministry
  of Labour, Family and Social Affairs, it would be necessary, without taking into
  account the need to correct previous analyses, to completely change the unemployment
  insurance system and the system of social security contributions (including a change
  in the rules on the registration and reporting service), to redefine and systemise
  the functions and tasks of the Employment Service of the Republic of Slovenia (hereafter
  referred to as the Employment Service), while strengthening it both in terms of
  staff and financial resources, and to completely overhaul (and at the same time
  abolish the existing) field of employment relations. In addition to the above, given
  the comprehensive description of the proposal as you have provided it, we also consider
  that its implementation would require the provision of appropriate legal and implementation
  bases in other areas of the legislative framework (in particular in the areas of
  taxation, companies and compulsory education). It follows from the above that such
  radical and drastic changes would require a significant investment both by the State
  (in the form of intensive inter-ministerial cooperation and coordination of its
  institutions) and by the other social partners (in particular the trade unions),
  since such systemic changes of a reformist nature also require the securing of a
  broad political and social consensus and, last but not least, a political decision
  at the highest level on their implementation. In the light of the above, we are
  unable to comment more specifically on the proposal, which is both very general
  and not very detailed.
