Government to Meet on Wednesday for 'Relief Cabinet' - Government's 'Relief Cabinet' to Cut €10 Billion in Business, Citizen Burdens

The government is set to tackle administrative burdens with the formation of a 'Relief Cabinet'. This comes as Minister Wildberger seeks proposals from fellow ministers to cut costs for businesses and citizens.

The 'compliance burden'—the time and financial costs of meeting legal requirements—will be a key focus. The aim is to reduce this by €10 billion. In the long term, the government hopes to cut bureaucratic costs by 25 percent, amounting to €16 billion, by the end of the legislative term in 2029.

The Relief Cabinet will convene on Wednesday to discuss these proposals. However, details about the meeting's composition remain scarce, with no official information available as of now.

The Relief Cabinet's first meeting is scheduled for Wednesday. Its goal is clear: to significantly reduce the compliance burden and bureaucratic costs, making life easier for businesses and citizens. Further details about the meeting are awaited.
