During his first term in parliament he was President of the Social Democratic Party, Chairman of the Defence and Security Committee of the Slovak parliament and member of the supreme legislative body’s Presidium. In 1992, he vacated his post as Social Democratic Party President, to enable Alexander Dubček to assume that function.

He was elected a Member of Parliament for the second time in 2002 and re-elected again in the 2006 parliamentary elections. In 2002-2006 he sat on the parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee and on the Special Oversight Committee for the Slovak Intelligence Service. After Smer-SD’s victory in the 2006 elections, Zala was elected Chairman of the Slovak parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee and took over as head of the Slovak parliamentary delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. Presently, he is a member of the Council of Europe’s Political Affairs Committee, of the committee on the Honouring of Obligations and Commitments by Member States of the Council of Europe (Monitoring Committee) and Vice-President of the Parliamentary Assembly. He was also a member of the Convent for the preparation of a new EU Constitution Treaty. His political activity focuses primarily on foreign policy and EU integration issues and on dialogue between civilisations, both in the context of Slovak politics as well as within larger European and EU frameworks.
