MPs postpone Drucker's dismissal vote until autumn
Videos
On Wednesday morning, MPs of the National Council of the Slovak Republic did not begin debating the motion to dismiss Education Minister Tomáš Drucker of Hlas-SD. The extraordinary session could not be opened even on the second attempt after 9:00 a.m., as parliament was not quorate. aktuality.sk ↗
The motion to dismiss the minister was submitted by the opposition parties KDH, Progressive Slovakia, and the Slovakia Movement. The opposition wanted to debate Drucker's tenure at an extraordinary session, but proceedings stalled already at the roll call of MPs. According to available information, an insufficient number of lawmakers registered when the session was being opened. hnonline.sk ↗
Drucker's dismissal vote thus followed on from the unsuccessful attempt the previous day. At the same time, MPs continued proceedings of the regular 52nd session of the National Council of the Slovak Republic. The motion to dismiss the education minister was ultimately postponed until autumn, when parliament is to return to the topic. ta3.com ↗
The case remains part of the broader political dispute between the coalition and the opposition. Further developments will depend on the agenda of the National Council of the Slovak Republic after the summer recess and on whether the opposition manages to keep the motion as one of the topics of the autumn parliamentary session. teraz.sk ↗
