TheSlovenian Parliament (Slovene:Slovenski parlament) is the informal designation of the generalrepresentative body of theSlovenian nation and thelegislative body of the Republic of Slovenia.
According to theConstitution of Slovenia, the general representative body of the Slovenian nation is theNational Assembly. The general public in Slovenia often refer to the National Assembly alone as the Slovenian Parliament.[1] However, theNational Council, the representative body of basic social groups, also performs a further, if minor, part of the legislative function.[2]
The opinions of experts and of the general Slovenian public on whether the Slovenian Parliament isbicameral orunicameral differ, although most consider it to be incompletely bicameral.[3][4] In 2008, theConstitutional Court of Slovenia recognized the Slovenian Parliament as incompletely bicameral.[5]
The National Assembly and the National Council convene in amodernist palace known as the "Slovenian Parliament" and sited inRepublic Square, Ljubljana. It was built between 1954 and 1959 by the architectVinko Glanz [sl]. An unrealized project for a Slovenian Parliament building, designed by the architectJože Plečnik in the late 1940s, features on theSlovenian euro coins.

S tega vidika lahko govorimo o nepopolni dvodomnosti slovenskega parlamenta, kajti po ustavnopravni teoriji se šteje za dvodomno vsaka ureditev, v kateri delujeta na področju zakonodajne funkcije dva organa, ne glede na to, kakšno razmerje je med njima.
