The Institute for Research and DevelopmentUtrip received EUR 160,000.00 for the establishment of a prevention platform of NGOsworking in the field of addiction prevention. The DrogArt Association received EUR156,426.00 for the project of empowerment of NGOs working in the field of harm reduction.The purpose of public co-funding is to promote the development of the non-governmentalsector and the civil dialogue in relevant thematic areas. Financial resources were allocatedfor the implementation of all activities carried out over the mentioned two-year period, andare not included in the summary tables in this year's financial report.The Slovenian Criminal Police uses more than half a million Euros each year in its fightagainst organized crime. Data show that financial resources used for the implementation ofcovert investigative measures and technical equipment amounted to EUR 657,254.05 in2011, whereas a year before they amounted to EUR 576,040.00. A large part of theseresources is allocated to the fight against illicit drugs. Since information on such resourcesoften refer to a number of different offences, we cannot present accurate data on theamounts of financial resources allocated to the field of illicit drugs.The Health Insurance Institute of Slovenia provided EUR 5,623,535.27 for the operation ofcentres for the prevention and treatment of drug addiction in 2011. EUR 2,709,098.00 wasspent on operational costs (personnel, facilities, etc.), and EUR 2,914,437.27 on substitutedrugs (methadone and other drugs).2 Available from the author. Received via e-mail.

The said amount was distributedby the Regional Institute of Public Health Koper between harm reduction programmeoperators.In 2011 the Fiho foundation dedicated EUR 342,991.97 to drug-related programmesorganized as NGOs.In this year's report we report for the first time on the co-funding of drug-related programmesby Slovenian municipalities. A city municipality is a political territorial unit whichencompasses a large city and its near surroundings; more precisely, it is a dense settlementor several settlements connected into a single spatial organism and its urban surroundings,which are connected by daily commuter flows. Article 16 of the Local Self-Government Act(Official Gazette RS, No. 94/2007) provides that a city can attain the status of an urbanmunicipality if it has at least 20,000 inhabitants and can offer at least 15,000 jobs, at leasthalf of which must be in the tertiary and quaternary sectors, and if it is the geographical,economic and cultural centre of its gravitation area. In exceptional cases, a city may attainthe status of an urban municipality for historical reasons. The state may delegate to amunicipality part of its tasks or duties relating to the development of the city. Slovenia has 11city municipalities: Ljubljana, Maribor, Celje, Novo mesto, Kranj, Koper, Nova Gorica, MurskaSobota, Velenje, Ptuj and Slovenj Gradec. Co-funding of drug-related programmes ispresented in the table below.21Table 1.2: Financial resources used in the field of drugs by city municipality, 2011MunicipalityAmount1. Celje 28,545.632.
