Excited camps and disputes about the reception of refugees: why are all federal states, with the exception of Vienna and Burgenland, late in meeting their quotas?
Anxious looks at St. Georgen in the Attergau in Upper Austria. The community is a symbol of the controversial tent camps and the lack of accommodation. Mayor Ferdinand Aigner (ÖVP) wants the tents gone. Otherwise, part of the western autobahn is lame on National Day. The interior minister contacted him and promised to place the tents at least further from residential areas. “Many refugees run away and hide in gardens. Then they disappear somewhere.” His congregation does a lot. In total, they can accommodate 350 people (including 63 from Ukraine who live in an orphanage).
Almost no state meets the quota
In general, Upper Austria is late in taking in refugees (3554 too few) – with the exception of Vienna and Burgenland, not a single state is meeting the quota. 34,700 are in primary care in Vienna (Austria 90,000). This exceeds the quota by almost 80 percent.
There is no will for housing
But why isn’t that the case elsewhere? There is better infrastructure in metropolitan areas; there is often a lack of housing – and the will to provide it, as the Diakonie criticizes. Traiskirchen (Lower Austria) is overcrowded, except for Upper Austria, there are tents on federal government land in Carinthia. It is the only way for the Minister of the Interior to become active in the countries. He no longer has the right to inspect here.
