First Government Retreat to Revitalize the Economy at the Federal Chancellery

The director of the Institute for Advanced Studies, Holger Bonin, and the head of Wifo, Gabriel Felbermayr, are invited to the government retreat. The economic researchers will share their assessments before the government members discuss measures for economic recovery. Measures decided upon at the retreat are to be addressed in the ministerial council on Wednesday, according to party spokespersons to the APA.
Government Retreat Develops Work Plan Until Easter
Felbermayr also emphasized the need for economic stimulus measures in an interview with ORF radio. At the same time, he recommended developing a plan for the entire government term - after all, the budget has not yet been consolidated with the billions in savings planned for this year and the next. Economic Minister Wolfgang Hattmannsdorfer (ÖVP) announced on Monday to Ö1 that he wants to address a new competition strategy. The government members also want to discuss which legislative initiatives will be on the agenda in the weekly ministerial councils until Easter. The media will be informed by the party leaders, Chancellor Christian Stocker (ÖVP), Vice-Chancellor Andreas Babler (SPÖ), and Foreign Minister Beate Meinl-Reisinger, at a doorstep before the start of the retreat and in the afternoon at a press conference.
