00:00:01.828 --> 00:00:05.078
Today's government meeting
was dedicated

00:00:05.266 --> 00:00:08.766
to the issue of recovery
and reconstruction

00:00:08.887 --> 00:00:13.007
after the floods and landslides
in August of this year.

00:00:13.483 --> 00:00:18.757
We also encompassed
today's visit

00:00:18.894 --> 00:00:22.898
and found some common ground.

00:00:23.242 --> 00:00:27.100
We also discussed
some operational issues

00:00:27.221 --> 00:00:29.721
that are key for further work.

00:00:30.328 --> 00:00:36.799
I also presented some information
on the work done so far

00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:41.047
by the work group
and the operational group

00:00:41.810 --> 00:00:44.741
to all of the ministers,

00:00:45.451 --> 00:00:51.006
as well as some short
operational agreements.

00:00:51.194 --> 00:00:57.991
No special decisions
were made.

00:01:00.561 --> 00:01:07.819
Would you like to point out anything
from the government meeting?

00:01:08.053 --> 00:01:12.137
Speaking as the representative
of the call centre,

00:01:12.483 --> 00:01:17.999
this visit of Koroška is very
important to us in two ways.

00:01:18.147 --> 00:01:24.332
We met with the residents
and leaders of municipalities

00:01:24.522 --> 00:01:28.178
and saw the situation here
for ourselves.

00:01:29.264 --> 00:01:33.560
The second thing that strengthens
our work here significantly

00:01:33.681 --> 00:01:35.361
is making contact

00:01:35.533 --> 00:01:40.431
or rather taking part in the
communication between departments,

00:01:40.552 --> 00:01:44.302
because they are the ones
that provide us with

00:01:44.423 --> 00:01:48.147
expert solutions
to more complex issues.

00:01:48.569 --> 00:01:51.069
There was a lot of this today,

00:01:51.190 --> 00:01:54.983
which will help the call centre
in the future.

00:01:55.287 --> 00:02:02.272
I also spoke to a few mayors
who had questions regarding this.

00:02:02.709 --> 00:02:05.224
We exchanged
our contact information

00:02:05.345 --> 00:02:10.052
and I think that we will make such
visits in other regions as well.

00:02:10.318 --> 00:02:15.240
Seeing how today went,
I do expect it to be useful.

00:02:15.623 --> 00:02:19.957
Mr. Šefic, may I ask
about the locations of the silt?

00:02:20.078 --> 00:02:23.998
This wasn't clearly explained
at the public forum.

00:02:24.295 --> 00:02:25.975
Regarding the silt,

00:02:26.096 --> 00:02:31.528
we explained the situation
in detail

00:02:31.649 --> 00:02:36.024
at a press conference
about 10 to 14 days ago.

00:02:36.145 --> 00:02:41.584
We are currently waiting
for the new results

00:02:42.501 --> 00:02:45.938
of measurements
made in the past period.

00:02:46.492 --> 00:02:51.829
We are mainly trying to determine
whether this silt is dangerous

00:02:52.016 --> 00:02:56.759
or whether it could ultimately
even be used.

00:02:56.930 --> 00:03:01.173
We will take care
of the dangerous silt

00:03:01.415 --> 00:03:07.235
and make sure that it is properly
stored and destroyed.

00:03:07.891 --> 00:03:11.095
At the moment
no solution is final.

00:03:11.265 --> 00:03:14.672
We are still
seriously discussing everything

00:03:14.793 --> 00:03:18.548
within the operational group

00:03:18.669 --> 00:03:23.884
and we will discuss it within
the government when it is ready.

00:03:24.415 --> 00:03:30.759
We are discussing various
options, including locations,

00:03:31.016 --> 00:03:34.132
but, I repeat,
with full responsibility,

00:03:34.282 --> 00:03:39.699
no decisions have been made,
and before we do make them,

00:03:39.820 --> 00:03:46.415
the residents and leaders
of municipalities

00:03:46.790 --> 00:03:51.189
will be notified and consulted,
as always.

00:03:51.727 --> 00:03:54.458
It was implied
that the Recovery Act

00:03:54.579 --> 00:03:57.431
will be prepared
by end of September,

00:03:57.552 --> 00:03:59.970
so, this week.
How far along is it?

00:04:00.091 --> 00:04:03.306
We said that it will be
at the government meeting

00:04:03.427 --> 00:04:07.345
in the first third of October.
We also discussed this today.

00:04:07.572 --> 00:04:09.405
It is quite far along.

00:04:09.526 --> 00:04:15.129
Certain departments will
coordinate today and tomorrow

00:04:15.250 --> 00:04:18.000
because they
need to align things.

00:04:19.485 --> 00:04:24.485
On Friday there will be a meeting
of the expanded work group,

00:04:24.606 --> 00:04:26.617
meaning that the departments

00:04:26.738 --> 00:04:29.884
that proposed these measures
will be present.

00:04:30.157 --> 00:04:37.266
The goal is to clear all of this up
and coordinate on Friday.

00:04:37.852 --> 00:04:42.711
The meeting will be in the afternoon
and will likely take a long time.

00:04:42.832 --> 00:04:48.337
Then we will begin preparing
statutory provisions.

00:04:48.754 --> 00:04:52.004
In the past 10 to 14 days
there has been

00:04:52.125 --> 00:04:57.051
a lot of coordination by individual
areas, as there are multiple.

00:04:57.520 --> 00:05:00.854
As we said
at today's government meeting,

00:05:00.983 --> 00:05:05.483
the goal is still for the Act
to come to the government

00:05:05.604 --> 00:05:10.412
and be addressed
in the first third of October.

00:05:13.070 --> 00:05:15.070
Anything else?
Thank you.
