Question about the location closure in Vienna by laudamotion:
Finance Minister Blümel only replies shortly: “In principle, the aid measures should be available to everyone who meets the application criteria.” Collective bargaining is not his area, but to be negotiated between employers and employees.
Gewessler zu Laudamotion: “We have a problem with social dumping in Vienna.” The future in Vienna could only be one, with fair conditions for all employees.
Question about AUA – state of negotiations:
Blümel: AUA talks would be in full swing – “progressing step by step”. However, it is “too early” to say what the package will ultimately look like. Gewessler also emphasizes the good discussions.
Question about short-time working: Blümel: The short-time working model should be extended for a further three months after three months. The funds were increased. Then you will look for and find a new solution.
Question: Every fifth company is worried about its existence. What does the finance minister say?
Blümel assures that improvements are constantly being made in many areas. “There is no blueprint for assistance.” But it would respond to feedback and constantly sharpen it – e.g. hardship fund or fixed-cost subsidy.
Blümel on the budget: “There are many correct and important measures.” It was therefore important to present a budget now. Corona will of course still have a noticeable impact on the budget. Cash register fall but probably only possible in autumn.
