The Shadow Association replied to the Minister of Labour Ružić

The organization 'Udruga Sjena' responded to Minister of Labor and Social Policy Alenka Ružić's statement regarding the cost of state-provided services for people with disabilities. The group calculated that one hour of ministerial work costs approximately 50.52 euros, arguing that if the government publicly calculates the cost of raising a child with disabilities, it should also calculate the cost of ministers' work. They criticized the proposed three-euro compensation for personal assistance hours, stating that this amount does not reflect the true value of the service. The group emphasized that citizens have not been compensated for the costs incurred due to the government's failure to provide adequate support, and highlighted their son's ongoing wait for personal assistance. They called for transparency and accountability, suggesting that the government should apply the same method of calculation to all public expenditures.
