The analysis of public procurement functioning in the Slovak Republic

Abstract. The regulation in public administration in Slovakia is still an issue under development and formation. This article is focused on public procurement from the viewpoint of regulation, the system of which has often been one of the most significant constraints in its successful functioning. We dealt with the periods of 2000-2006 and 2007-2012, when the Act No. 25/2006 Coll. on public procurement became effective, and we compared public procurement systems in the given periods. We performed a comparative analysis of the functioning of the system during these periods in relation to its effectiveness and pointed at the problems of public procurement.
