The creation of a third national RTV SLO channel was first envisioned in 2005, with the passing of the Slovenian Radiotelevision Law (or Grimsov Law), [1] in which the broadcaster would open a channel dedicated to sessions of the National Assembly of Slovenia and its related organs. [2] [1]

Test broadcasts started on 21 May 2008, becoming regular on 16 June 2008 with a special ceremony. [3]

The channel's main role is that of public supervision, with the aim of increasing awareness of the functions of the Assembly. In addition to its parliamentary programming, TV SLO 3 carries repeats of news and other programs from the regional centers, as well as documentaries and its own news bulletins, including sign language editions. [1]

SD broadcasts ceased on 17 January 2022 on terrestrial television, leaving only the HD feed operational. [4]
