(Reuters) - Slovak centre-right Prime Minister Eduard Heger, serving in a caretaker capacity after losing a no-confidence vote last month, said on Monday he would seek to put together a new parliamentary majority in the coming days to finish his full four-year term.

Heger's government fell after a libertarian coalition partner, Freedom and Solidarity (SaS,) pulled out of the cabinet in September and together with several other government deputies turned against the cabinet in a December vote.
