Slovenia - Administrative Court of the Republic of Slovenia, 17 January 2013, Judgment I U 1921/12
Country of applicant: Kosovo
Keywords: Material reception conditions

The right to pocket money for an asylum seeker whose placement in a private address is permitted by the Migration Office because of justified reasons is part of the right to dignity. Legislation depriving a person of this right is not in line with the Constitution. 

Rules on rights of applicants for international protection (Governmental Decree, Official Gazette no.64/14) determining that financial aid for asylum seekers placed in a private address is to be decreased by 50% might endanger the applicant’s right to human dignity.
