A snap election on July 13th was won by the recently formed Party of Miro Cerar (SMC), which formed a centre-left coalition with the Democratic Party of Slovenian Pensioners (DeSUS) and the centre-left Social Democrats (SD).
The coalition has a comfortable majority, holding 52 out of 90 parliamentary seats, but is likely to be politically fragile as policy differences come to the surfece.
The outgoing government's budget deficit target of 2.5% of GDP in 2015 (national definition) implies major cuts to public-sector employment, wages, pensions and social benefits, and is unlikely to be met.
