LJUBLJANA, May 14 (Reuters) - The Slovenian government has 
decided to keep a stake of at least 25 percent in the country's 
biggest bank Nova Ljubljanska Banka (NLB), its largest fuel 
retailer Petrol  PETG.LJ  and drug firm Krka  KRKG.LJ , the 
finance minister said. 
    Dusan Mramor also said no other single investor would be 
allowed to hold a bigger stake in those companies than the 
state, to ensure the government had a say in key business 
decisions.
