Response from the competent authority: Response from the Ministry of the Interior:The
  Ministry's expert services have examined the petition and explain that the initiation
  of the procedure for issuing a Certificate of Eligibility for participation in the
  Single Programme does not require the personal presence of the beneficiary at the
  competent administrative unit. The completed application form for the issuance of
  a certificate of eligibility for participation in the single programme may be submitted,
  currently only in physical form, by any person authorised by the beneficiary.The
  form "Application for the issuance of a certificate of eligibility for participation
  in the single programme" is attached as Annex 3 to the Regulation on the methods
  and scope of providing assistance programmes for the integration of non-EU nationals
  (Official Gazette of the RS, No 70/12 and No 58/16).However, it should be noted
  that the procedure for issuing the certificate and serving it is a general administrative
  procedure and must follow the provisions of the General Administrative Procedure
  Act (Official Gazette of the RS, No 24/06 - UPB, 105/06 - ZUS-1, 126/07, 65/08,
  8/10 and 82/13). Thus, anyone wishing to represent a beneficiary in this procedure
  must obtain the appropriate powers of attorney as required by the above-mentioned
  Act.We would also like to point out that the contractual partners of the Ministry
  of the Interior, which provide free courses under the single programme "Initial
  Integration of Immigrants", are obliged to respect certain standards in the course
  delivery. In addition to the provision of adequate space, suitably qualified lecturers
  and formative group sizes, one of the important elements is the initial testing
  of the students' background knowledge. On the basis of this testing, students are
  placed in groups with other students with comparable proficiency in Slovenian. Thus,
  it cannot be expected that providers will be able to form groups consisting solely
  of, for example, students employed by a particular legal entity or to organise the
  course (e.g. adjusting the timing of the course for a particular group) in accordance
  with the wishes of a minority of students.
