Companies excluded from government subsidy program plan legal action

Several companies that were removed from a government subsidy program by the Deputy Prime Minister's Office are preparing to challenge the decision in court. The exclusions have prompted the opposition Slovakia movement to call for an extraordinary parliamentary committee meeting to examine the matter. The Deputy Prime Minister's Office, which oversees various government programs and policy coordination, made the decision to exclude the companies from the subsidy scheme, though the specific reasons for their removal have not been detailed.
