If government does not win the vote of confidence, National Assembly has to elect new Prime Minister within 30 days.

If it fails, President of the Republic dissolves the National Assembly and snap election takes place within 60 days.

Zmago Jelinčič Plemeniti (SNS), who returned in the National Assembly after 7 years in the last election, was banned from entering Council of Europe due to severe violation of the PACE's rules.

Jelinčič was accused of receiving €25,000 for voting against the report of the PACE stating that irregularities occurred during elections in Azerbaijan, which he observed.

Some, including GRECO and TI, also called on the National Assembly to finally form and pass an Ethical Code for MPs.

As example they added that Cerar supported US missile strikes against Syria earlier in April and Brglez did not and stated that these acts are against international law and Slovenian Constitution.

[30] On 2 August 2018 Commission for the prevention of corruption issued its report on Zdravko Počivalšek's unlawful meetings with former President of Executive Council of SRS (Prime Minister) and former Director of State Security Service (SDV) Janez Zemljarič who is seen as one of the most important people in Slovenia as a part of so-called "Deep State".

Počivalšek tried to prevent the publishing of the report, however Supreme Court decided that contents of their meetings can be publicly announced.

Meetings were against the law because Počivašek as public servant did not report them to the Commission and because Zemljarič is not registered as lobbyst or representative of any company, but was however acting in such way.

Zemljarič and Počivalšek were talking about construction of Izolski otok (Izola Island) project worth around half billion euros.

It is reported that State Secretary Eva Štravs Podlogar (SD) met with Zemljarič as well.

Former SD MP and Speaker Janko Veber, Vili Kovačič, Gašper Ferjan, Andreja Magajna (former SD MP) and Jožef Jarh filed an appeal against 3 June elections results and requested that Supreme Court annules elections.
