In this study the author analyzes the substantive provisions of the forthcoming legislation and also brings point of view on the most fundamental changes for the Slovak criminal law, which are connected with forthcoming legislation. The paper also deals with issues of creating of new legislation resulting from the currently considering comments from the inter-ministerial review, which was completed on August 5th, 2014.
