The social partner appeal on Monday for better job opportunities for women and more childcare (the OÖN reported) should be taken seriously. “Anyone who governs Upper Austria must also tackle the challenges ahead, and child education is a top priority,” said SP club chairman Michael Lindner.
According to the Social Democrats, the VP-FP coalition negotiators should bring practitioners into the negotiating team in order to make serious progress. This is where Caritas comes in, which at the start of the kindergarten year had already sounded the alarm due to a lack of staff and with which Governor Thomas Stelzer (VP) should have a good basis for discussion, said Lindner.
KP country spokesman Michael Schmida also spoke up on Tuesday: his party would “with all its might” resist anti-social and backward-looking politics outside parliament and participate in various civil society initiatives.
