This resolution of the Government of the Slovak Republic addresses the institutional arrangements needed to fulfil the objectives of the EU Climate and Energy Package under Slovak conditions, taking into account the systemic changes introduced by Act No. 37/2010 Coll., which amended Act No. 575/2001 Coll. on the organisation of government activities and central state administration.
In essence, the resolution deals with how responsibilities for meeting Slovakia's climate and energy targets — stemming from EU-level commitments — should be distributed and coordinated across relevant state administration bodies, following the reorganisation of central government introduced by the 2010 legislative changes. It aims to ensure clear institutional accountability for implementing the Climate and Energy Package at the national level.
