153 applications were submitted for the funding right after midnight on the 5th of May. 91 of the applications were submitted in the first minute alone. Nearly three months later the Ministry of Economic Development and Technology still hasn't decided on the applications. Because of that many projects, like for example the building of a kindergarten in the municipality of Ormož, are still on hold.

The ministry says it will announce the results of the call for applications until the end of August.
