Dec 15, 2006 (newstodate): The Slovak government has now underlined its decision not to sell Bratislava Airport that was earlier on the verge of being sold to an Austrian consortium through a tender this year.
Instead, Bratislava Airport has now been named a strategic state asset, which implies that the state will always retain 51 percent of its shares.
To compensate for the shortfall of investments envisaged in the earlier tender, financing of the airport's modernisation will be secured through loans instead.
A business plan is now being designed and will be completed already before the end of this year, stipulating the future goals and investment programs.
