I can confirm that

<https://www.gov.si/assets/ministrstva/MDDSZ/VZD-/Resolucija-o-nacionalnem-programu-VZD.pdf>

linked from

<https://www.gov.si/podrocja/zaposlovanje-delo-in-upokojitev/varnost-in-zdravje-pri-delu/>

uses a dot as the separator:

| Zaradi duševnih motenj je bilo pri izbranih zdravnikih v Sloveniji med
| letoma 2009 in 2013 v povprečju 18.471 primerov bolniškega dopusta na
| leto, kar je 2,5 odstotka vseh bolniških dopustov.

Translated as (also linked available from the page):

| Doctors in Slovenia registered an average of 18,471 cases of sick
| leave per year due to mental disorders between 2009 and 2013, which is
| 2.5 per cent of all cases of sick leave.

I have filed a bug: <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25233>

Our version has since switched to a Unicode narrow non-breaking space,
and I think we also disable grouping.  CLDR does not seem to have
accurate data (it uses a decimal point AFAICS).

Thanks,
