Commission Report 2002 (Slovakia)
Concerning the alignment of mutual recognition of professional
qualifications and diplomas and the introduction of required administrative
structures, education and training programmes, much work remains to be done.
The Centre for Equivalence of Diplomas, expected to be an organisational unit
of the Ministry of Education, has still to be designated as the contact point
and national co-ordinator for the general system directive, as foreseen in
the Action Plan. With respect to the urgent priority of professional
qualifications obtained before harmonisation, Slovakia has not yet introduced
all measures to ensure that all its professionals can, from accession, meet
the requirements laid down by the directives in the medical sector. As
regards the reinforcement of the administrative structures for the
co-ordination of social security, progress can be reported. As foreseen in
the Action Plan, the staff resources (numbers) and staff qualifications of
the liaison bodies and other institutions designated for the implementation
of the co-ordination of social security schemes has been strengthened, but
social insurance databases still need further improvements. Thus, the
Accession Partnership priorities in the field of free movement of persons
have been partially met. Implementation of the measures under the Action Plan
is partially on track.
