The Slovak government plans to change the Slovenske elektrarne (SE) privatization conditions, a majority stake will be offered (before the Cabinet intended to sell only a 49% stake). Should a buyer acquire SE as a whole (both nuclear and conventional parts), the sale could be completed by June 2005, otherwise by the end of 2005, Reuters reported yesterday. The tender will be formally reopened this week; CEZ said it would participate.
