Vote on demographic fund, communicable diseases bills postponed

Ljubljana, 15 July - The coalition has decided to postpone today's vote on a new demographic fund bill and another on the communicable diseases act to call down the heated political situation and instead focus on efforts to secure a high vaccination rate before the autumn to prevent a new lockdown, Prime Minister Janze Janša told the press on Thursday.
