Even before the federal government’s controversial anti-inflation package takes effect, previously installed support payments are being scrapped. This also applies to the increase in the commuting allowance and the euro commuting. 1.3 million sufferers quickly lost a lot of money because of this. The SPÖ calculated the losses for Niederösterreich, the largest state.
The opposition and some experts criticized the anti-inflation package presented by the black-green government as too little and too late. This includes, for example, the measure that the profits of the energy companies will be skimmed off from 1 July, provided that prices are not lowered beforehand. Exactly one day before this regulation goes into effect, another measure, which is especially important for commuters in the state, expires, namely the increase in the travel allowance and the commuter euro.
