The National Council (Slovene: Državni svet) is according to the Constitution of Slovenia the representative of social, economic, professional and local interest groups in Slovenia and has a legislative function working as a corrective mechanism of the National Assembly, although it does not itself pass acts.[3] It may be regarded as the upper house, but the bicameralism is distinctively incomplete.[4] It is not elected directly by the population, but meant to represent different interest groups in the country. The councillors are elected for a five-year term.
