Interior Minister Gregor Virant, Police Commissioner Stanislav Veniger and the head of the PSS union Radivoj Uroševič will sign the document after the deal reached last week was endorsed by the government and the Police Trade Union of Slovenia (PSS) on Monday.

According to the draft released on the government website on Monday, the agreement is similar to the one the government signed with another police trade union in late May. The main point of the deal is that the budget funding for salaries at the Interior Ministry and Police Force will not be cut in 2013 and 2014.

Police officers will also get a bonus for overtime in the implementation of a project dubbed Campaign to Provide Protection of People's Lives and Property. The government will supply an extra EUR 600,000 for the project this year and an additional EUR 1.8m in 2014.

The agreement moreover includes a guarantee against redundancies in the Police Force and the Interior Ministry by 1 January 2015. Nor are redundancies planned for 2015 and 2016.
