Vienna chooses: Christoph Return as the new Minister of Education in focus!
In Austria, education policy is restructured: Christoph Return, the Vienna City Councilor of NEOS, has been confirmed as the future Minister of Education. This decision was made yesterday as part of the government negotiations, in which the NEOS received two ministries, while SPÖ and ÖVP each occupy six ministries. According to ORF , it is back to revolutionize education in Austria by focusing on the kindergartens and further strengthening the schools. "As Minister of Education, I would like to create good for Austria. It is urgently needed to create an Austrian -wide catch -up in the field of education," he said at a press conference.
The restructuring also brings uncertainties in the SPÖ camp, where after 25 years a finance minister is to be determined from their own ranks. There are currently discussions about the candidacy of Vienna's Finance City Councilor Peter Hanke. Both the "press" and the "courier" of internal discrepancies report. Party leader Andreas Babler apparently favors other candidates for the Ministry of Finance. The elections and the votes within the party committees will soon take place. In the meantime, the NEOS assumes a stable team in the government. In addition to return, Beate Meinl-Reisinger is also traded as the future Secretary of Foreign Affairs, while Josef Schellhorn is to be appointed State Secretary for Deregulation, as reported.
important reforms in view
In addition to these personnel policy changes, there are significant reforms. The new coalition is planning measures on asylum policy and has agreed on a "opportunities for more educational justice". It is also intended to prevent the use of cell phones in schools and to promote the expansion of all -day schools. Parents should be held more responsible, especially if their children have difficulties at school. These reforms are part of the comprehensive government program, which will have to be rejected or approved by the NEOS members in the coming days before the new government may be praised on Monday.
