NR: Criticism of the non-valorisation of family benefits

The article discusses criticism directed at the lack of valorization of family benefits within Austria's budget debate, focusing on the role of Minister Claudia Bauer (ÖVP). The FPÖ has criticized this issue, while Green spokesperson Barbara Neßler called for faster expansion of childcare places. The coalition argues that sufficient funds still flow into the family sector, citing a 7.5% allocation rate compared to other European countries. SPÖ and NEOS praised the focus on tangible services, while Berger accused the government of treating traditional families as outdated obstacles. Additionally, NEOS representative Veit Dengler requested a vote against a section of the budget proposal related to Chancellor’s office funding due to concerns over excessive party subsidies.
