The government will be able to buy only 70-80,000 of the 250,000 tablets promised to students in the new school year for online courses, under the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic.

You need a reason to make that decision. There was here” In my opinion , a lot of monotony and excessive rigor in the procedure took too long. We will eventually buy between 70 and 80,000 tablets. But we thought about it, “Orban said.

“We will reimburse the local authorities or schools for any purchase that is made, we have one hundred million euros for tablets, 500,000 tablets can be purchased, we have 50 million euros for materials, protective equipment that we will also reimburse local authorities,” Orban also stated.
