{{Politics of Slovakia}}
The '''National Council of the Slovak Republic''' ({{langx|sk|Národná rada Slovenskej republiky}}, abbreviated to ''NR SR'') is the national [[parliament]] of [[Slovakia]]. It is [[unicameralism|unicameral]] and consists of 150 members, who are elected by [[universal suffrage]] under [[proportional representation]] with seats distributed via [[largest remainder method]] with [[Hagenbach-Bischoff quota]] every four years.<ref name="law180-2014">{{cite act |index=180/2014 |date=29 May 2014 |article=68 |article-type=Article |legislature=National Council of the Slovak Republic |title=Zákon o podmienkach výkonu volebného práva a o zmene a doplnení niektorých zákonov |trans-title=Act on the Conditions for the Exercise of the Right to Vote and on Amendments to Certain Acts |url=https://www.zakonypreludi.sk/zz/2014-180 |language-sk}}</ref>

Slovakia's parliament has been called the 'National Council' since 1 October 1992. From 1969 to 1992, its predecessor, the parliament of the Slovak part of [[Czechoslovakia]], was called the [[Slovak National Council]] ({{langx|sk|Slovenská národná rada}}).

The National Council approves domestic legislation, constitutional laws, and the annual budget. Its consent is required to ratify international treaties, and is responsible for approving military operations. It also elects individuals to some positions in the executive and judiciary, as specified by law.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nrsr.sk/web/default.aspx?sid=nrsr/poslanie|title=Postavenie a právomoci|website=NR SR|language=sk|access-date=20 May 2020}}</ref>

The parliament building is in [[Bratislava]], Slovakia's capital, next to [[Bratislava Castle]] in [[Alexander Dubček Square]].

==Functions==
The 150-seat [[unicameral]] National Council of the Slovak Republic is Slovakia's sole constitutional and [[Legislature|legislative]] body.<ref>{{cite act |type=Constitution |index= |year=1992 |article=72 |article-type=Article |legislature=National Council of the Slovak Republic |title=Constitution of the Slovak Republic |page=29 |url=https://www.prezident.sk/upload-files/46422.pdf}}</ref> It considers and approves the constitution, constitutional amendments, and other legislation.<ref name="Article86">{{cite act |type=Constitution |index= |year=1992 |article=86 |article-type=Article |legislature=National Council of the Slovak Republic |title=Constitution of the Slovak Republic |page=33 |url=https://www.prezident.sk/upload-files/46422.pdf}}</ref> It approves the state budget.<ref name="Article86"/> It elects some officials specified by law, as well as justices of the [[Constitutional Court]] and the prosecutor general.<ref>{{cite act |type=Constitution |index= |year=1992 |article=134 |article-type=Article |legislature=National Council of the Slovak Republic |title=Constitution of the Slovak Republic |page=52 |url=https://www.prezident.sk/upload-files/46422.pdf}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.nrsr.sk/web/default.aspx?SectionId=3 |title=Postavenie a právomoci |trans-title=Status and powers |publisher=National Council of the Slovak Republic |access-date=26 May 2020 |language=sk}}</ref> Prior to their ratification, the parliament also should approve all important international treaties.<ref name="Article86"/> Moreover, it gives consent for dispatching of military forces outside of Slovakia's territory and for the presence of foreign military forces on the territory of the Slovak Republic.<ref name="Article86"/>

==Decision-making==
The parliament may vote only if a majority of all its members (76) are present. To pass a decision, the approval of a simple majority of all MPs present is required. Almost all legal acts can be adopted by this relative majority. An absolute majority (76 votes) is required to pass a vote of no-confidence in the cabinet or its members, or to elect and recall the Council's speaker or the deputy speakers. A qualified majority of 3/5 of all deputies (at least 90 votes) is required for the adoption of a constitution or a constitutional statute.<ref>{{cite act |type=Constitution |index= |year=1992 |article=84 |article-type=Article |legislature=National Council of the Slovak Republic |title=Constitution of the Slovak Republic |page=32 |url=https://www.prezident.sk/upload-files/46422.pdf}}</ref>

==Speakers==
{{main|List of speakers of Slovak parliaments}}

[[Richard Raši]] has served as Speaker of the National Council of the Slovak Republic since 26 March, 2025.

==Structure of former legislatures==
The length of the bars underneath represents each party's electoral performance. The difference in the total width of the bars is due to the [[election threshold]] of 5%; this threshold prevents a varying number of small parties from entering the National Council (most notably, after the 1994 election).

==Elections==
Members of the parliament are elected directly for a 4-year term, under the [[Proportional representation|proportional system]]. Although the suffrage is [[Universal suffrage|universal]], only a citizen who has the right to vote, has attained 18 years of age and has permanent residency in the Slovak Republic is eligible to be elected. Similarly to the [[Netherlands]] and [[Israel]], the whole country forms one multi-member constituency. The [[election threshold]] is 5%. Voters may indicate their preferences within the [[Open list|semi-open list]]. Parliamentary elections were last held in 2023.

The main parliament building is situated next to the [[Bratislava Castle]] on the castle hill. The building is insufficiently large to accommodate all officials and representatives. The construction started in 1986 when Slovakia was part of Czechoslovakia as a building for the [[Federal Assembly (Czechoslovakia)|Federal Parliament]], which usually met in [[Prague]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2011/10/08/world/europe/slovakia-is-key-to-survival-of-euro-currency-zone.html|title=Slovakia May Hold Key to Euro Debt Bailout|first=Nicholas|last=Kulish|date=7 October 2011|access-date=15 December 2017|website=[[The New York Times]]}}</ref> The secondary parliament building, the Zhupa house, which was the main building until 1994, is situated at Župné square next to the [[Trinitarian Church of Bratislava|Trinitarian Church]] below the castle hill in Bratislava.
