Sources: 4. Developments: 2. Slovenia is pursuing administrative reforms to streamline the building permit process. Minister for Interior and Public Administration Franci Matoz announced measures intended to ensure permits are issued within 60 days of a complete application. A significant component of this reform involves changing how neighbors are involved in proceedings; they will no longer be automatically included as parties unless specific legal conditions are met or exceptional circumstances arise. This change aims to mitigate delays caused by objections and legal remedies, which have previously extended some processes to five years. Concurrently, the Ministry of the Environment and Spatial Planning is preparing a decision regarding a building permit for the third development axis (3. razvojna os) following stakeholder hearings. Local groups, such as the Dolenjski razvojni klub, continue to petition for the immediate commencement of construction on this infrastructure project. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-06: Slovenia to reform building permit process to reduce delays Slovenia aims to expedite building permits to a 60-day limit by limiting the automatic involvement of neighbors in proceedings.
