SP and Neos impose conditions on the conversation

Key points include the release of AGES figures on the infection process, open schools and full compensation for companies, SP chief Pamela Rendi-Wagner and Neos president Beate Meinl-Reisinger said in a previous press conference. Neither of us expected much from the conversation.

The opposition received a government draft for the new measures by email on Saturday morning, Rendi-Wagner reported. Like Meinl-Reisinger, you don’t expect much from the hour-long conversation advertised via the video link. The SP president fears that the time is simply too short to incorporate the opposition’s suggestions and concerns. This is not an honest participation of Parliament, he criticized.

“Leave schools and kindergartens open”

Regardless of this, SP and Neos are now making five demands in the run-up to the afternoon talks, which are a condition for approval in the main committee of the National Council. For example, fast and non-bureaucratic support services for companies, after all, hundreds of thousands of jobs are again threatened. Rendi-Wagner also made an “urgent appeal” to the government to keep schools and kindergartens open. Care facilities should also be better and more specifically protected.

It is particularly important that the two opposition parties release the figures on the infection rate. “It can’t be that AGES analyzes are secret sciences that only those in power can access,” Meinl-Reisinger said. And contact tracing shouldn’t be ruled out either. Such a strategy is the central model of any epidemic control, Rendi-Wagner emphasized. However, this requires central coordination by the health minister and an increase in staff.

Neos fights exit restrictions

What the Neos at least fully resist is the nighttime exit restrictions. Therefore, Meinl-Reisinger wants to vote on this issue separately in the main committee. She sees in him “measures that really correspond to martial law.” Nor can he understand that cultural institutions can also be closed again. According to the at least known figures from AGES, there is no increase in the number of infections there.
