Leichtfried criticised for trying to influence the government on statistics Austria

„Short-and Strache want to determine what the Austrians of Austria“

Vienna (OTS/SK) – The Deputy of the SPÖ club Chairman Jörg warns Leichtfried to the fact that the government always wants to take more influence on the work of the statistics Austria. „Short-and Strache want to determine what the Austrians in Austria. As a style of politics, we must not allow in Austria. Where that leads can be observed in Hungary very closely,“ says Leichtfried. ****

The „Butterfly“ reported today that the statistics Austria receives from the Ministry of women’s Affairs no funding for the „time use survey“. The data of the life and work realities of women and men, exactly. Recently it became known that the FPÖ Minister for social Affairs, Hartinger-Klein questions concerning the working hours satisfaction, obtained by the statistics Austria so far, in the order of the Ministry of social Affairs together with the microcensus, has been deleted.

For Leichtfried, the worrying signs are. „If you formulated the exaggerated, wants to censor the government of the reality. Short-and Strache want to prevent that the Public can assess the impact of their policies on the basis of reliable, robust data.“ (Final) ls/wf/mp
