The council of ministers ended on Wednesday with “essential decisions”, as Chancellor Christian Stocker (ÖVP) emphasized. In addition to the plan to stop the family reunification of asylum seekers, especially when it comes to bureaucracy, the brakes must be well increased.
A “deregulation -detox” in the country is urgently needed, the responsible Neos -State Secretary Sepp Schellhorn explained. This year – “Pijker not me to a date” – he wanted to present a corresponding deburahratization report.
No more two or three tracks
What you can expect from this “bureaucratierem”: a transparent presentation of costs, and citizens must be relieved of unnecessary bureaucracy. The focus is in particular on two or even three-glauces, which the State Secretary wants to put an end to.
Although he is in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs -and therefore without direct influence on other departments -Schellhorn sees good opportunities to enforce his plan. After all, it is not about political parties, but about the location of Austria, he appealed.
Lighting for small and medium -sized companies
There is also lighting for companies. A assistance package decides in the council of ministers is intended to strengthen the backbone of the Austrian economy and medium-sized companies that, according to the Chancellor, contribute around 160 billion euros to economic output.
A five -point plan is now being implemented:
- Increasing the fundamental flat rate
- Abolition of the document express obligation up to 35 euros
- Abolition of Nova for small trucks in these companies
- Simplification of approval procedures
Family reunification: Systems are already overloaded
The now fixed stop of the family reunification in the asylum area was fiercely debating in advance. Minister of the Interior Gerhard Karner (ÖVP) emphasized that it was about securing the measures that have already been taken into effect.
Spö State Secretary Jörg Leichtfried also agreed: the recording capacities are not only limited, the systems are already occupied or even overloaded by the inflow.
